Make desktop version of the voting process full screen #42

Closed V-ed closed 5 years ago

V-ed commented 5 years ago

The voting screen does not take the full screen, which reduces screen real estate.

The voting page does take the full page on mobile however, which is the intented behavior (mobile shouldn't change while desktop should be "scaled up").

The more and more I think about this, the more I think it shouldn't : a scaled up version would mean a possibility to scroll up and down on desktop, when this shouldn't happen...

Q: "Yes but we need to scroll up ad down on mobile already, what's the difference?" A: It is natural to scroll up and down on mobile, while a big screen would not be intuitive to need to scroll to only see 8 names and a button to submit. It's all about the screen real estate, not just a display preference.

I thought about it some more and indeed, scaling up dynamically should not be used as I want some coherence in the application, so therefore the same style applied everywhere.
