[Interop-dev] [gsoc] New advanced mode editor widget for NetJSON editing

[Nemesis]

We are getting interesting patches from potential GSoC students in OpenWISP.

This one adds a nice editor widget for the advanced mode in
django-netjsonconfig (the base configuration management module of
OpenWISP 2), in which users can edit NetJSON directly. The widget also
displays JSON and schema validation errors and prevents saving if the
JSON is invalid. Pretty neat!

We should try to maximize exposure for Freifunk too so that maybe we can
get potential students to start contributing sooner.

I just released django-netjsonconfig 0.5.5
<https://github.com/openwisp/django-netjsonconfig/releases/tag/0.5.5>,
which includes a new JSON editor widget for editing NetJSON
<http://netjson.org/> in the advanced mode.

This new editor brings a few important improvements to the advanced mode:

  * syntax highlighting
  * JSON validation error reporting
  * JSON schema validation error reporting

Here's a screenshot:
