Open to pull requests?
Great work on this module. I have some suggestions to the markup/styling. Would the maintainers be open to reviewing a pull request with them?
I'll try to illustrate my suggestions:
- Shift the admin menu to sit above the page layout. This reduces conflict with most designs and ensures high visibility. It also allows for the menu to be responsive much more easily. See attached screen of rough idea. This requires changing the core navbar from fixed to relative position.
- Although the ninja illustration is nice it's an unnecessary flourish that clutters the design. I love great graphic design but a module such as this should probably remain focused squarely on functionality & accessibility. This type of flourish could reside in a contrib theme though.
Hi Thomas, Thanks for the comments and time spent to mock up. Because the administration is something most people would do on a laptop or on a tablet most screens have a wide ratio and that is why we wanted the left bar positioning. I like the "active" idea and we might even use it with the left position admin bar. Last version made the ninja appear only if you click on the blue bar. and the interface is minimal only to the icons width. Lior

I have yet to truly examine how the theming system works but I'm curious if it would be possible to more easily override the template (view) and css then to have to modify in the files in the module folder. Is there or could there be a way to override the view for this in the public folder? I don't want to load in that extra markup and image each page load. The current design will also interfere with various designs I'm working on and I'd prefer not to maintain a fork of the project.
We (@linnovate) have a lot of experience from the Drupal world - where this kind of overiding is very common. Actually being able to changed the views directly rids you from neededing many overides - we'll defintly look in to this.. Thanks for your participation and ideas! rock on Lior
