TYPO3 Core

Make installations possible with one single click. All you can do is clicking continue during install or leave the installation of the extension half way finished. So all these steps and informations could be collected and summarized for more comfort during installation of many extensions which usually happens when you set up a new typo3.

actually you need to:

• import
• install
• allow db changes
• save default config

This should be possible with less clicks.

an example approach:

• click on an install icon (with no overlay for dependency problems)
  -> if there are no dependency errors
  -> start installation and show progress in popup/overlay
• click on an install icon (with no overlay for dependency problems)
  -> if there are any dependency errors
  -> list them in a popup window (p.e. T3-version, PHP-version, other extensions)
  -> list of other depending extensions should resolve their dependencies too
  -> list of other depending extensions should have a checkbox to install them too

If any error occurs during the installation process they should be presented (popup or something else).

I recommend to get some impressions of other extension managers in other cm-systems to get an impression how other developers provide em-features and use them for discussion. (p.e. Wordpress)
