Deprecate ActiveAdmin Theme

Open smpallen99 opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

When I originally wrote ExAdmin, I used the layout from the Rails ActiveAdmin project to avoid having to write my own UX. Later, when I added the AdminLTE2 theme, I kept the ActiveAdmin theme in for backwards compatibility.

I don't use the ActiveAdmin theme in any of my projects now. Also, supporting both is a royal pain. I would like to deprecate the ActiveAdmin theme. It has fallen behind, isn't bootstrap based, and a pain to maintain.

Please add a reaction to this issue if you agree/disagee. I would like to get community feedback before proceeding.

It would be a pity to deprecate it since it provides a way for migration without UX shocks to users of existing interfaces written in ActiveAdmin. Its actually quite a strong selling point IMO ...
