The netzke-basepack gem was updated to 0.3.0, introducing the BasicApp widget: a basis for a Ext.Viewport-based widget (“application”).

Currently it supports:

• dynamic loading of widgets
• authentification support
• restoring the last loaded widget (on the per user basis)
• browser history support
• FeedbackGhost-widget powered feedback
