**Note**: Using the above method involves access control being handled on the frontend, and therefore in security-critical situations, it is recommended to use an alternate method for authentication. Keycloak is [natively supported](docs/authentication.md#keycloak), but you could also use [Authelia](https://www.authelia.com/), a VPN or web server and firewall rules. Instructions for all of these can be found [in the docs](docs/authentication.md#alternative-authentication-methods).

The modal and workspace views work by rendering the target application in an iframe. For this to work, the HTTP response header [`X-Frame-Options`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Frame-Options) for a given application needs to be set to `ALLOW`. If you are getting a `Refused to Connect` error then this header is set to `DENY` (or `SAMEORIGIN` and it's on a different host).

Dashy has an **optional** built-in feature for securely backing up your config to a hosted cloud service, and then restoring it on another instance. This feature is totally optional, and if you do not enable it, then Dashy will not make any external network requests.
This is useful not only for backing up your configuration off-site, but it also enables Dashy to be used without having write a YAML config file, and makes it possible to use a public hosted instance, without the need to self-host.
This is useful not only for backing up your configuration off-site, but it also enables Dashy to be used without having write a YAML config file, and in the future there will allow the use of the public hosted instance of Dashy for users without a server.

## Release Schedule 🗞️
> For full release, automation and CI documentation, see: [**Releases & Workflows**](./docs/release-workflow.md)
Dashy is under active development, with features, improvements and changes pushed almost daily.
We're using [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/), to indicate major, minor and patch versions. You can find the current version number in the readme, and check your apps version under the config menu. The version number is pulled from the [package.json](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/package.json#L3) file.
Typically there is a new major release every 2 weeks, usually on Sunday, and you can view these under the [Releases Page](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/releases). Each release will create a new [tag on GitHub](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tags), and each major release will also result in the creation of a new [tag on DockerHub](https://hub.docker.com/r/lissy93/dashy/tags), so that you can fix your container to a certain version.
For a full breakdown of each change, you can view the [Changelog](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/.github/CHANGELOG.md). Each new feature or significant change needs to be submitted through a pull request, which makes it easy to review and track these changes, and roll back if needed.

## Git Strategy
### Git Flow
Like most Git repos, we are following the [Github Flow](https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow) standard.
1. Create a branch (or fork if you don'd have write acces)
2. Code some awesome stuff, then add and commit your changes
3. Create a Pull Request, complete the checklist and ensure the build succeeds
4. Follow up with any reviews on your code
5. Merge 🎉
### Git Branch Naming
The format of your branch name should be something similar to: `[TYPE]/[TICKET]_[TITLE]`
For example, `FEATURE/420_Awesome-feature` or `FIX/690_login-server-error`
### Commit Emojis
Using a single emoji at the start of each commit message, to indicate the type task, makes the commit ledger easier to understand, plus it looks cool.

### PR Guidelines
Once you've made your changes, and pushed them to your fork or branch, you're ready to open a pull request!
For a pull request to be merged, it must:
- Must be backwards compatible
- The build, lint and tests (run by GH actions) must pass
- There must not be any merge conflicts
When you submit your PR, include the required info, by filling out the PR template. Including:
- A brief description of your changes
- The issue, ticket or discussion number (if applicable)
- For UI relate updates include a screenshot
- If any dependencies were added, explain why it was needed, state the cost associated, and confirm it does not introduce any security issues
- Finally, check the checkboxes, to confirm that the standards are met, and hit submit!
