Hi,

I’m trying to implement a UI plugin for the Quota service feature [1], but 
could not find any useful documentation on the UI codebase except for this wiki:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/UI+Plugin+Tutorial

Do we have any documentation on the UI codebase anywhere?

I’m able to implement a UI plugin but it assumes that all views start with a 
list view and then elements in it can have views with tabs such as details etc. 
Is there a way I can start with a tab view directly, for example when someone 
clicks on the UI plugin it opens to a tabbed view, where each tab can render 
their specific html template? (see the Quota FS [1] for screenshot/mockup)

The plugin framework activates when at least one plugin is enabled, this 
renders a generic plugin tab on the left navigation which renders a list of 
available plugins when clicked. This makes sense if you have huge number of 
plugins but this is awful if you’re using one or two. If I just have one plugin 
I need to click on the plugins tab on the left nav bar, then click on the 
plugin to access it. Should we do something like, render list of plugins on the 
left nav bar if the length is say less than 3-4 (a small number)?

Thanks.
