Building Dashboard within existing website - angularjs

I'm trying to include a dashboard in my existing website. I have seen multiple themes and github projects but still not convinced with the right framework/theme to go for my project. I can use themes but that gives me lesser flexibility to change things. At same time, I want to build my dashboard faster.
Can anyone out here please help me how to get this done ?
I found following links on searching through internet. But a bit confused.
https://github.com/rdash/rdash-angular
https://github.com/sdorra/angular-dashboard-framework
http://startbootstrap.com/template-overviews/sb-admin/
There are many more I'm sure....
Open questions:
1. Can anyone give me suggestions about how exactly how can I go with
development to make things faster ?
2. Is there any existing framework for same which can help me in rapid development ?
3. If not, then are there any small node.js packages, then can accomplish smaller tasks for me ?
4. Are there any good tutorials/blogs to go about building basic dashboard? Adding/Removing features can be done later.
Your inputs are welcome.
Thanks

How can you build React on top of Drupal?

I've never used Drupal, but have been looking up tutorials online. My client would really like the adaptability of React and to have more flexibility in terms of design. I could make my own database and React app, but I have not studied security (I'm a team of one, so no one for security on my end, either). Security and access to a content management system was the main reason we decided to go with Drupal. However, I would still like to be able to code in React/something I'm familiar with to produce a site I am proud to say I made.
I've been Googling and Youtubing tutorials and help, but not having anyone to ask specific questions is making this difficult.
If anyone knows of a relatively easy way to build a React app on Drupal, I would really appreciate the advice. Or if there is a better way I should go about beginning a project as I've briefly mentioned above, I would also be open to that. Thank you in advance and sorry for the long message!
What you are asking is quite broad in concept and not easy to answer in just one answer post. Try to look for Headless / Decoupled Drupal.
https://www.acquia.com/drupal/decoupled-drupal
What this essentially means is that all the services and the content management are handled by Drupal while the core user experience or the way the site is displayed in a browser is controlled via a JavaScript framework such as React.js or backbone.js. This is achieved via Drupal’s RESTful API service.
Hope this helps.

Some questioning about codenameone

I don't know if it's the good place to ask these questions. So if it's not the case sorry for inconvenience.
We are looking for the most adapted tool for our crossplatform mobile project. Before begin to invest time we are testing many crossplatform develeoppement solution ... it's difficult to find the tool where you say Yes it this one !!
Actually we are beginning to test codename one. It looks very promising but we have some doubts and question about features and how we can organize our project :
Do you know if it is possible to separate code and design -> build each "screen of the app" with one xml file to describe components and style and one java class to define behavior and contents(dynamically or not) of these components ?
What about nfc support ? at least for android apps ?
The ui components are not really "sexy" in examples. Do you know if it is possible to load/download or why not buy some more attractive one.
I hope you will be able to answer our questions
Thank you and sorry for my english ...

What about nfc support ? at least for android apps ? see here

The ui components are not really "sexy" in examples.

But overall I would like to suggest you can't get 'that' sexy unless you not try. Don't take it wrong but see the examples submitted by other and what they developed you may get same or more than that if you try.
I hope you will be able to answer Your questions :)

How to create a setup of an Windows application using PowerBuilder

I am a newbie for PowerBuilder and for Windows application. I have few projects which consists corresponding code in it and after merging all that I get the final product. The problem I am facing right now is that I don't know how to make a setup of my Windows app using PowerBuilder. If I can get step by step procedure with tiny explanation, I will be able to achieve it already. Have tried Google but ended up with complex confusion. I have created the .exe, but that .exe does not work on any other computer. So please guys help me out.
Thanks
There are two parts to creating a setup program for your application: defining the files and other resources that need to deployed, and building those resources into a setup executable package.
For defining files and resources, you've made it impossible for anyone to even take a shot by referring to two very different (but similar origins) versions of the product in your tags: PowerBuilder (aka PowerBuilder Classic) and PowerBuilder.NET. The deployment requirements for apps built from each of these is very different. However, even if we knew, the best advice is to go through the manuals and review what is required of the features of your specific application. (e.g. if you don't use rich text, deploying the files required to support it would be a waste). A generic list is, IMHO, just bad advice.
As far as building a setup package goes, the first decision is which package building software to pick (none comes with PowerBuilder). Any Windows setup package builder should do. I've used InstallShield and Inno, vastly preferring the latter (after many years of using the former). I know you want steps to walk you through, but a walk through is impossible before picking the software, and frankly, walk throughs of these setup building software has been done elsewhere much better than I'd do.
The bottom line is that the answer isn't as simple as you seem to have been hoping, but it is attainable.
Good luck,
Terry.

Creating an online Asset Library/Catalogue? Help

I've been asked to look in to creating and online database for sorting flash banners. So its kind of like a big resource library where our client can log on search and browser for old/existing banner creatives.
Does anyone have any recommendations on what I should do/look in to. CMS Framesworks etc.
I'm pretty sure I could use Wordpress for this job via custom post types etc. But I think there's probably a better solution out there. Drupal? Joomla? Expression Engine? Or would it be better to just create a basic cms from scratch.
Features needed:
Kick arse search functionality (am guessing the client will likely try to search for creative by year, month, campaign, banner type.
Smart navigation
Sharing is convenient
Must be able to demo working demos of expanding banners as well as non-expanding
CMS so new ads can be easily added to the library.
Thanks in advance for you knowledgeable insights :P
cheers
Although basic Joomla has own extension for this purpose, here:
