  • 1.  AI Coding and Dashboard

    Posted 06-13-2026 13:17

    I've been playing around with AI coding for Dashboard. So far I've tried Chat GPT (free) and Gemini (Pro). I must say that I've been able to tackle things that are above my coding comfort level quite successfully. I've found that Gemini Pro has been really pretty decent, but you have to watch it carefully as it gets confused between javaScript and ogScript. 
    I'm curious to see if others are using AI as well and if so, what AI coding agents are working well for you?

    TIA

    Have tried it a bit, and yes, JavaScript vs ogscript is definetly an issue with some of them.

    But the main issue here is that most browsers and AI agents today are based on ES6, while DashBoard is still stuck in ES5.
    And not to criticize ROSS too much here, it's been 11 years ago since ES6 was released, so it's about time to update DashBoard on that front IMO.

    This will be an issue with DashBoard soon, especially since AI is driving more and more coding. And not everyone is familiar with the difference of ES5 and ES6.

    Hi Jerry,

    There is an upcoming Dashboard 10.0.0 major release which will now support ES6. Stay tuned on the community forum for the release.

    Thanks,

    👍 Good news.
    Do you know if there will be an update to the style formatting for dropdowns (parameter respects the style definitions)?

    This is gonna be a massive update to DashBoard in that case, and make it even more powerfull!

    Do we have an ETA for this?

    Claude has by far been the best, so far. I'm mostly using AI to write complicated javascript functions to manipulate data imports. Gemini has been fine but Claude had more context right off the bat for what I was trying to do with Dashboard and ogscript. I usually provide code templates (out of the Dashboard templates that have been floating around the forum or previously programmed panels) that are similar to what I'm trying to accomplish and then ask for modifications. I also ask for a lot of logging with the debug function and we go back and forth about the results. But, it's been pretty trivial to get great functions out of these systems.

    It would be pretty great to have a bunch of markdown files that work as instructions for programming ogscript. I've tried uploading the Custom Panel pdf and I think it's too much to chew on.

    I've also had some success asking the Ross Support bot questions and for code snippets.
