User Interface: design update & further development

[uwesteffen]

Hello World!

In the past lot of interface-components were born during the development process. In the future the design department will be actively included in this process of creating new components or re-check some design-issues that came up.

Since we are planing to switch to tailwind, I created a small design file which gives a quick impression of what litstack can look like.

So feel free to post your questions regarding the future function or the looks of the interface.

@uwesteffen Looks awesome!

With most applications it happens that the menus contain many entries, by the large height of the points they fast become unclear and it is hard to find what you are looking for. Is it possible that they become narrower or could we add a choice between narrower and higher menu entries?

@cbl the document is updated:
I added a small version of the main menu and optimized the dropdown a little. seems like thats the smallest we can go.

Maybe we should consider making the Header-Nav fixed at the top always having a white background and and thus dispense the little animation. It might also be narrowed just a tiny bit…

updated and a first scribble of an extended top navigation.
also a small version.
