It would be nice to be able to add/edit variable/indicator categories.

For example I need to add a new category for the Australian Coastal Ecosystem product that contains 8 indicators. I can add the indicators, but not a category to contain these. Also in the app I can't change an existing indicator's category.

Hey @nf-s is this something that you'd be happy for me to do? It could be a good small task to get me onboarded onto developing the app 😄

[nf-s]

Hey @willjnz feel free! That sounds great :)

Can you please develop off of this branch?

• Rename variable to indicator, and create first version of derived indicators #29
• https://github.com/SustainableDevelopmentReform/csdr-cloud-spatial-app/tree/derived-indicators

[nf-s]

You can add categories when adding/editing variables/indicators (in the derived-indicators branch) - but you can't rename a category after creating it (the API and hooks exist)

@nf-s am I missing something? I'm on the new branch and I can't see how the user can add a category in the app.

@willjnz if you type in a value that returns no result, you should see a "create" button.

I wouldn't worry about categories at this stage, at some point we need to create UI to manage these
