GSoC 2026 - Week 12

Here is week 12 update for my project:

This week was mostly focussed on documentation. I made a few code changes while writing the documentation to update any missing stuff. I made the following changes in this process:

  • Added batching support for Energy widgets - Commit 7310196
  • Added batching and parallel support for com distance widget - PR #64
  • Minor widget enhancements - PR #65

Here are some of the changes made as part of the last PR above:

  • Add documentation link in widget details page
  • Add confirmation for widget delete from dashboard page
  • Add duplicate and delete support of widget from widget details page

I added documentation as part of these PRs:

  • Doc for built-in widgets - PR #63
  • Doc for custom widgets - PR #66
  • Docs for batching and parallelization - PR #67
  • Doc for overall architecture - PR #68

All the docs are live on the official RTD link: https://mdadash.readthedocs.io/

Release v0.0.9 has all changes upto Week 12.

This week marks the end of the official coding period for GSoC 2026 (12 weeks). Further updates on the project will be available on the GitHub repo https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdadash in the CHANGELOG and Releases section.

The MDAnalysis Dashboard - Mini Workshop is scheduled for August 20, 2026. Next week, I will spend time on prep for the workshop - materials / ppt. I will write up the GSoC 2026 final report after the workshop.
