## User Information
The user can input private and public user information which can be used by other modules and shared with other users.

### Extendability
Modules can provide components which help the user to get a better overview about the data he generated:

* Charts
* Spreadsheets
* Calendar/Events

* etc.
## Data sharing
It's also possible to easily share data through the module. All users that have sufficient permissions can also see the generated data such as media files, tasks etc. which allows users to easily share data. The data sharing is done on individual resource level which means that only data becomes visible to other users if it is made public to those users/groups.
