Pierre,
I don't know if we'll need it or not for now. There is so many thing to
define but it seems interesting. We will have to start this discussion
on the new theme topic.

Hi all,
I start a page about the POC for the UI improvement.
I'm not sure if the content is enough but I was wanted to create it.
We can now start some... Jira ? I was wondering one main Jira linked
to 4 other sub-jira.
thanks to those Jira, we can have 4 teams or workgroup to go ahead in
both ways.

Let me know if I'm doing well,
Kind regards,
Julien.
PS : I'm currently checkout the common-theme provided by Nicolas's
github (https://github.com/nmalin/ApacheOFBiz/tree/common-theme)

Hi Everyone
Another one of the topics that came up during the brainstorming in
Seville was around the UI. In fact we had at least 2 presentations
from the OFBiz track at Apachecon that were about how we could
improve our UI.
If the UI was the main focus - what could the strategy look like
- User Interface - have 2 versions of the UI, one very clean and
simple, the other more advanced. (Our current UI could be the
advanced one....?
- Separate the web part from the widgets
- We have too many fields on one screen (many of them are not
mandatory and are just included as optional). What if we slimmed down
all the screens to have a sensible default UI for users. The UI could
also be modifiable by service providers. Simplify the screens with
defaults
- Use Bootstrap / CSS / Angular
- Isolate web related
- Define a graphics charter to be used for the screens
- Have a CSS convention
- Remove web from the framework - it shouldn't be there
What do people think?
-Do people think it would be a good idea to have 2 versions of the
UI? (a simple one and a more advanced one?)
- Are these the things we would need to focus on or have in place if
we wanted to focus on the UI?
(Also I know Nicolas has mentioned that he has already started work
on a Proof of Concept for a common theme - so do we need to make
sure we agree conventions etc before much more work is done?)
Thanks
Sharan
