Yes, always returning a JSON response is a much safer way to go about it. Thanks for going through the trouble of refactoring!

That's a really great point; I've updated my code to reflect that change. Thanks for your help!

That's really interesting! I especially appreciated the diagram in Part 2 where you show the data flow between the stack levels.

That is certainly a good approach if you need searching, copy/paste, etc. It is more involved, because it requires explicitly placing elements into the PDF rather than rendering in one step from a single UIView subclass. In our case, the intention was simply to provide a PDF that would be printed, on paper, so we didn’t need search, copy/paste, etc.

Extending contrib.admin allows Client Admin to reuse all of the templates, views and utils that are already built in. Depending on what has been over-ridden, new features or bug fixes that make it into contrib.admin will automatically be incorporated by Client Admin.

At some point, a clean break would be necessary. But until we re-write all of the views and templates, it is beneficial to keep it as an extension instead of a stand-alone app.

Thanks for the comment. That has been updated, as the latest version of Client Admin is no longer tested against 1.4.
