The Usual Aims
The four horsemen of NearBeach improvements are making an appearance again. These four aims will constantly be in each months aims, as they have no end goal. There are always small and large improvements we can achieve with these aims, and we aim to do improvements for these each month;
- Full site testing and bug fixing
- Documentation testing and improving

Improvements to NearBeach
The following are a list of improvements that we wish to achieve this month. Many of the improvements that we were unable to achieve last month have been ported over into this list.
Refactoring of user permissions so code base is easier to understand and read- Replace webpack with vite. We are using Vitest to our unit testing, and want to simplify the building and testing of NearBeach
Card179 - Construction of a diagnostic page. There are many problems that can go wrong with system administration. A simple diagnostic page could help improve the investigation steps of diagnosing those problems. This page will include but not limitied too;Email connectionsTesting uploads/downloadsChecking core configurations

New Features For NearBeach
Card322 - Custom object "Status" editor
We have recently implemented NearBeach flow, which allows users to have custom status on each object. At the moment the only way to implement these status' is to do it insdie the Django Admin Dashboard.
We will build functionality that will allow the user to, create, edit, and sort these custom status in the system.
Gantt Charts
Project management is not project management without Gantt Charts. We are finally re-implementing the back into NearBeach.
Sprints
The sprints feature will slowly be built over the next couple of months. There are many features we would like to place into the Sprints section of NearBeach.
