Ability to hide detail sidebar

[kevin-lindsay-1]

Describe the Feature You Want

Sometimes I need to use a single screen for both code and updates. Tilt is the perfect tool to have open alongside my code, but I can't read the logs for the app I'm working on because the real estate of the sidebar is too large.

Current Behavior

Currently it seems to expect a wide viewing area.

Why Do You Want This?

To be able to use tilt even when I don't give it a dedicated monitor.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Thanks for filing! As a single-monitor user, I definitely empathize.

Have you tried tilt logs for this use case? How close does it come to meeting your needs?

[kevin-lindsay-1]

I haven't, and I'm sure that would work much better, but I prefer the UI. Seems like a fairly easy button to add, since there's already a sidebar.

Hi @nicks @landism @kevin-lindsay-1 !

I started hacking away at this for a bit today and thought I should reach out before going any further. I'm happy to cleanup & push the Proof of Concept example.

Minibar?

I started implementing a Minibar so users can still switch between resource logs and view status while the sidebar is collapsed. I'd just like to see what everyone's thoughts were before I continue.

• Resources in the minibar show their name & status on hover.
• Group labels will probably just become arrow accordions with their label shown on hover.
• Search may open the sidebar onFocus to give users room to type?
  • onBlur re-collapses if previously collapsed?
  • maybe don't render search bar when collapsed?
