Rob Moran commented on NIFI-1323:
---------------------------------
Thanks Oleg - this first round of mockups is largely meant to illustrate style
updates around current functionality. Versioning (or some way to differentiate)
is something we'll definitely want to capture as we move toward the new
registry experience. My goal would be to create new, separate mockups to
demonstrate those ideas.

> ----------------------------

> Key: NIFI-1323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1323
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core UI
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Rob Moran
> Priority: Trivial
> Attachments: nifi-add-processor-dialog.png,
> nifi-component-samples.png, nifi-global-menu.png, nifi-head...@800px.png,
> nifi-interaction-and-menu-samples.png, nifi-sample-flow.png

> (I will attach mockups as they become available)
> I am starting to work on a design to modernize the look and feel of the NiFi
> UI. The initial focus of the design is to freshen the UI (flat design, SVG
> icons, etc.). Additionally, the new design will propose usability
> improvements such as exposing more flow-related actions into collapsible
> panes, improving hierarchy of information, etc.
> Going forward, the design plan is to help lay the foundation for other UI/UX
> related issues such as those documented in NIFI-951.

> *nifi-sample-flow.png*
> Mockup of sample flow. Updated to show revised tool and status bars.
> Management related actions will move to a menu via mouseover (see
> _nifi-global-menu_). Added benefits here include reducing clutter and more
> user-friendly menu with text labels to reduce time spent scanning only a
> large set of icons. This also helps gain valuable viewport width in a browser
> (see _nifi-header-@800px_)
> *nifi-global-menu*
> To show global menu
> *nifi-header-@800px*
> Shows a very useable UI down to around 800px in width. The thinking here is
> that at anything lower than this, the NiFi user experience will change to
> more of a monitoring and/or administrative type workflow. Future mockups will
> be created to illustrate this.
> *nifi-interaction-and-menu-samples.png*
> To demonstrate user interactions - hover states, tooltips, menus, etc.
> *nifi-add-processor-dialog.png*
> Dialog sample
> *nifi-component-samples.png*
> To show styling for all components
> _Will be updating this soon to reflect recent design changes_
