Modernize the look and feel of NepalMap #243

Open cliftonmcintosh opened 5 years ago

cliftonmcintosh commented 5 years ago

Counting India has very nice modern layout that looks much like Google's Material Design approach. See https://www.countingindia.com/profiles/country-IN-india/. Notice how each section has a card-like quality that is more modern than the older style that we are using.

Determine if we can update NepalMap with similar improvements. If not, explain why. If we can, submit a design proposal before proceeding with an update so that we can verify if the team wants to use the updated design.

Thank you @cliftonmcintosh. I support the idea of thinking about new designs for NepalMap. @arlexgole would you like to advise or support us on this? Thank you

devbks commented 5 years ago

Agreed @cliftonmcintosh NepalMap ui looks old, i'll work on some prototype

@ravinepal I can help out. Is the focus just on updating the UI?

Thank you

Thank you, @arlexgole. It'd be great to update UI & IX.

I'd prefer to keep the same color schemes. These are our brand color schemes.

Red: #E00015 Blue: #00ADEF White: #FFFFFF light gray: #FCFBFB

arlexio commented 5 years ago

Let me know if you have any feedback and I can update the designs.

Thank you, @arlexgole! much appreciated. I like it. @cliftonmcintosh @pratimakandel @devbks what do you guys think?

cliftonmcintosh commented 5 years ago

Yes, those are nice improvements. Thank you very much, @arlexgole, for working on this. Is this something that can be updated directly in our projects without forking/hacking the underlying wazimap framework?

cliftonmcintosh commented 5 years ago

@arlexgole

Are you still interested in taking this on?

arlexio commented 5 years ago

Yes but I am not too sure about how the wazimap framework works. Is there an engineer who I can work with to try to possibly implement the designs? I can also try to look into the code myself.

ishan-dongol commented 4 years ago

I can help you with that @arlexgole . @ravinepal
