No UI expert either…


Some quick thoughts:   for the first-time user, I think it’s more logical to read through the form and then have the generate button at the bottom.

 

For a user familiar with the form would a keyboard shortcut  (Ctrl+Enter) be more helpful (than a button at the top)?

I am no UI expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I am honestly not sure about this one. I would like to hear what others think. For one, I don’t think I’ve seen many forms that do this. For the other, I think users should actually review

For one, I don’t think I’ve seen many forms that do this. For the other, I think users should actually review what is being generated, go through the options and then make a conscious choice to generate.

 

I have no doubt though that the UI could use some look and feel work. The truth of the matter is that neither I nor Bazlur are proficient in this area. Kito kindly agreed to take a look but he can’t get to it until the weekend unfortunately. Maybe Jeyvison or someone else at Liferay could help?

Hi,

 

I played with the 2.0 version of the UI and it felt a bit tedious to me to scroll down to the form to generate an application. The header of the Starter page takes a lot of space and getting to the form requires scrolling even on a big resolution.

 

Therefore I raised a PR to suggest a button at the top of the form to scroll to the form with a single click: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/starter/pull/241

 

Please have a look and let me know what you think by commenting on the PR. The PR contains a screenshot and a video. Maybe it's not the best solution but I think we should make it easier to jump directly to the form without scrolling.

 

Ondro

Folks,

The 2.0 version UI is now on the cloud and appears to be functioning as
expected: https://jakarta-starter.azurewebsites.net.

Can everyone please kick the tires and see what happens? I would like to
make sure there is nothing unexpected with the deployment for the next
few days.

Note, this is the staging URL. The production URL on Azure will be
different.

Thanks,

Reza
