Hello guys!
I really love your main idea behind of Evidence, but recently I realized that in some cases business users need even more simple solution than a web BI. Even if it's a lightning fast and easy to use web BI, which is also very friendly to its developers.
The alternative I was thinking of is a newspaper-like approach. Imagine business gets an email early in the morning, before the day begins, with all the fancy charts and rest stuff - exactly as they would have seen it, if they went to a static website, generated by Evidence, just probably without interactive javascript-powered part.
I was thinking how to approach this, with using Evidence as a base, given Evidence doesn't provide this feature out-of-the-box (or does it?). My first idea was to use some 3rd party tools or libraries to save the HTML from evidence website and inject it into HTML email, and I'm gonna try exactly this. But I have some doubts regarding extra resources, that HTML might be using - like separate css, js, image files, whatever. Not sure if email client applications will be nice to me, while rendering all that :)
If anyone has any ideas or probably already implemented something like this, I'll be grateful to hear from you.
