About the UI/UX Suggestions category

Any suggestions relevant to UI/UX to improve the current system, in favor of launching the app without a new interface.

Here are the changes I propose:

body {
font-family: “system-ui”, Helvetica, Roboto, san-serif
background: #F7F3EB
color: #05192D
}

a {
font-weight: 500
color: #1A68FA
}

navbar {
box-shadow: 0px 0px 1px 0px rgba(61,66,81,0.2), 0px 1px 4px -1px rgba(61,66,81,0.3);
min-height: 60px (make sure to align-items center.
border: none
}

.panel-body {
border-radius: 10px
}

Other Notes:

  • Remove horizontal line dividers in navbar
  • remove Kidocode logo, replace with small gif logo of kidocode symbol
  • Replace all icons with ionicons v4. Choose rounded icons
  • If icon is below 24px OR icon is meant to show a resource used filled type. Else use outline version.
  • In the main panel (center column: .task-intro), remove the border left and border right, increase padding all around to 18px.
  • left column (profile area), remove panel heading
  • Change general --blue variable to : #1A68FA
  • Remove book icon in center panel
  • Main title like, " Course: Learn Python Programming" → change font-size to 18px.
  • .task-intro remove grey background
  • .panel-profile-img {margin-top: 24px, margin-bottom: 24px}
  • h5 .panel-title {font-size: 18px} (this is the profile name in the left column)
  • Remove the panels below profile (links and copyright stuff). Move all main links to header
  • Make links in header split in to two columns in the following order: Kidocode symbol gif (Home), Courses, Trainers | Consumed etc…

The shield icon located on the left of the performance bar is not intuitive. It can be removed, as it does not explain what it’s for.

Agree

Rohan like this, give more :smiley:

hi @rohan
I’ve applied some of these changes, you can check them out on the IP :grinning:

Comments on the code editor

  • The the ace editor theme: Emokid pastel - The theme is light on the eyes, less intense contrast, matches kidocode palette well and kid friendly - TmThemeEditor

For buttons in code editor:

In code editor:
