An ideas section linked to a forge component can be really helpful. Similar to the support section linked to every component.  The dev team for the component can even move the ideas on their radar and notify of the implementations.

Sometimes we would like to ask for improvements/ features in forge components.

Wouldn't it be good to have an idea section per forge component?

Hi Mikael,

You may use the Support tab inside each Forge component's detail page and interact directly with the component's owners.

Does it work for you?

Cheers!

If that will notify the owner about it, then is it's good enough! 

Yes, when you post on the Support rab inside a Forge component, a notification is send to the dev team of the forge component.

In Ideas we give suggestions of what OutSystems should do to the platform. In the Forge developers share components with the community. If I have doubts about a component, I can ask in Support and the topic is associated to the component. If I need more functionalities, I can develop it myself and ask to join the team to share. But sometimes, I don't need something. I just think it will be useful for others.

My idea is that people could have a section to suggest new features to the team, and the team would say "no", "not now", when, or "do you want to do it?". Just like OutSystems does. It can be in Ideas or in Forge.

Some lazy users would use it to ask for everything (like they already do), but this would increase communication among users, help to collect feedback, promote dialog and create better apps.

Maybe this can also be used to people to give ideias for some new components. Sometimes people have ideias but don't know how to implement the. Maybe some other developers will be able to help other with that.

I'd say for that you already have the forum. A lot of requests are "has anyone ever integrated with x?". But it can be an option, depending on how it is implemented by OS.
