What about some discussion around creating custom components? What are people's pain points? How can we improve the developer experience around them?

I would like to hear about the security pen-testing that Adam mentioned last time.

Another topic mentioned was recording for this call. We could use Teams, like the PowerShell team does, and then upload the video for others to listen in on after the call. I'm not changing any format for today's call but we can chat about a potential move today.

We had a good showing today! Thanks everyone. Here are some notes I took:

We need a better refresh of the custom component docs. They use old, outdated tech. There is something wrong with webpack. I discussed a bit about how we are looking at improving the NPM package for custom components to not only provide the ability to generate new components but to create new dashboard frameworks.

Breaking changes to the Az.KeyVault module are coming and we need to validate that it will continue to work with PSU. I think they will continue to work as long as they did not break the SecretManagement module contract. We will likely need to update documentation for the changes.

We talked a bit about pen testing at Devolutions and how we are working hard through 3rd party testing, a dedicated security team and AI scanning to find and address issues before they even leave the building.

We talked about Security Headers. Guidance is unclear and setting some headers appears to break PSU itself. We're going to review internally and some users also mentioned they would provide some feedback on what they used to get it working. Hosting | PowerShell Universal

One attendee brought up the desire to use GitHub App registration for git sync authentication. They current use PAT and can't use SSH. I've opened an issue to track this request.

We got some feedback about inconsistencies in apps. For example, not all components have -Style and some have an -Sx. This makes it difficult to customize the style of apps. The same holds true for validation in New-UDForm with other components. New-UDTextbox has validation but no other form components do. I've opened an issue for both of these items. I think we should also do a general pass to see what else we may be missing.

There is also desire for async promise support in Invoke-UDJavaScript. One user suggested a work around but I've bumped the priority on this one. The hope is that it's not much work within PSU while kind of a lot of work for the workaround.

We got a demo the PowerShellUniversal.StandardLibrary: steviecoaster/PowerShellUniversal.StandardLibrary: A UI toolkit for repeatable PSU app patterns

Hopefully, the next call will be recorded so I won't need to do these notes manually. :D If I've missed anything, please comment below.

Is it on the PowerShell Universal Discord or another Discord server. The link is expired

@constantinhager It's just on the PSU discord. PowerShell Universal

OK. Will this be publicly announced the next time?

@constantinhager Yep. We announced this one on Discord and here before it happened and will do the same for the next. If there is a better place to get the word out about it, I will make sure we publicize there as well. We may be switching to teams but that won't affect where we announce it.
