==Project III: Feature enhancement ==

===Project Description===
====Cookies management====
*Create a cookie management system (component / plugin) in Joomla 4 to manage cookies as required by GDPR and other privacy regulations.
====Improve Menu List view (Menu Items)====
*Add information of the selected menu item (like article title and id, category title and id) to the menu overview list and link it directly to the items. Categories receive a link to the category item as well as to the list of child items.
It should be taken care for performance, so e.g. information should be visible on request.
====Improve Menu-Module Assignment====
*Placing modules on a page (in the menu item form) is currently tedious. Ability to change the module menu assignment in the menu item.
====Improve Content====
*Remove the view featured and integrate it in the current article list. Take care of the featured ordering. 
====Improve the incorporation of modules in the Articles-Edit-View====
*The function to insert modules in an article will be supplemented with the function to create and edit Modules in the Article-Edit-View.

===Knowledge Prerequisite===
*Must have: PHP, XML, CSS, JS

==Project IV: Media Manager==

===Project Description===
With Joomla 4, the Media Manager got a complete rewrite. The Media Manager team finished milestone 1 from the planned list.
In this project milestone 2 should be implemented.

As a student, here is the list of things expected from you as deliverable for the project: 
*Implement a “database abstraction” for the files, so all files will be entries into the database and folders will be categories. A virtual layer above the (cloud) file system. This function should be opt-in (needs probably a htaccess) and still support the old way of handling files.
*Implement permissions for files and folders, based on the “database abstraction” layer
*Allow the creation of different image sizes
*Extend the “add image” editor button to support srcset (with different sizes)

===Knowledge Prerequisite===
*Must have: Knowledge of PHP, HTML, CSS, VueJS, JavaScript
*Nice to have: Joomla! 4 template creation

===Difficulty===

*Medium
