Hello @abdellatif-laghjaj! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have for DevLake. Let's tackle this together!

To add your own feature to Apache DevLake, such as a new page called "AI Analytics," you can follow these general steps:

1. Understand the Architecture: Familiarize yourself with the existing architecture of Apache DevLake to understand where your feature can be integrated. This might involve reviewing the current UI and backend structure.

2. Develop the Backend: If your feature requires new data processing or integration with AI models, you might need to create a new plugin or module. You can follow the steps for adding a new data source or plugin, which involves bootstrapping a new plugin using the generator, structuring it with api, models, and tasks, and then running and testing it ^[1][2].

3. Create the Frontend: For adding a new page to the UI, you might need to modify the existing frontend codebase. While specific instructions for adding a new page are not available, you can explore the current UI implementation to understand how pages are structured and rendered.

4. Integrate AI Models: Use the data input and output capabilities of DevLake to feed data into your AI models. Although specific details on data handling are not available, you can explore existing data processing modules to see how data is ingested and outputted.

5. Test and Iterate: Once your feature is developed, thoroughly test it to ensure it integrates well with the existing system and meets your requirements.

6. Contribute Back: If you plan to contribute your feature back to the community, follow the contribution guidelines provided in the Contribution Guidelines and Development Workflow.

These steps should help you get started on adding your "AI Analytics" feature to Apache DevLake.

If you're referring to adding a report page to an existing component, I don't think we have such a feature. We use `config-uo to configure data sources, but it's not an appropriate place for this purpose. And we use Grafana for dashboards, which is somewhat relevant, yet it doesn't support custom pages.

If what you need is to conduct some AI analysis and generate an aesthetically pleasing report, you might want to check out the https://github.com/apache/incubator - devlake - playground repo. The basic concept is to collect data with Apache DevLake and analyze it using Jupyter Notebook. Perhaps you could generate a report or at least some charts for the report.
