A few useful pieces
BASidekick brings together the little things I want close at hand in Niagara: a quick look at point health, a saved trend, a navigation dropdown, or an icon that fits the page.
It is a community project with room to grow. Use GitHub Issues for bugs, ideas, and feedback, and pull requests to contribute additions or improvements.
What it does
Operations dashboard
Point health, open alarms, schedules, and recent changes in one view.
Histories and trends
Browse histories, compare series, and save chart setups for next time.
Navigation
A dropdown backed by a station navigation menu, for moving between PX pages and views.
Icons
Navigation icons in several styles, with light and dark options.
Small helpers
Point inspection, diagnostics, signal smoothing, and a link planner round out the collection.
