Moar HfA stylized look and feel?

[decause]

Though we cannot add an HfA logo onto the page, perhaps there are some ways we can improve the look/feel of this site?

• [x] Use the Sharp Unity Typeface?
• [x] Incorporate colors from the HfA palette?
• [x] other ideas?

Here's the quick tweak I posted in slack. • Blue background in header ( #0057B8 ) • Swapped in Sharp Unity ExtraBold for the "DevProgress" word mark.

@rschroed awesome!

I liked how there was some variation to our old word mark, so maybe we could try doing bold on "Dev" and ExtraBold on "Progress"?

@mattrothenberg thoughts?

If there were a way to take advantage of the "even/odd" striped quality of the table, perhaps we could use a very subtle hint of an accent color in the table itself? Only if it is a trivial change though, because many datatable solutions come with that option out of the box?

Moar thoughts?

yeah, if alt colors on the rows is easy, I'd recommend #f7f7f7 (or #efefef if that seems too light.)

Attached.

re: the logo, I don't have 'bold' just semi and extra so I can't try it right now. Regardless, you'd probably want that as part of the SVG. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help with that.

@rschroed have you sent a PR? I think we can merge what you've got so for :)

[rschroed]

ha, no. I don't have the code checked out or a build running. Let me spend a few minutes and see what I can do. Otherwise I'll copy some CSS from the inspector here for someone to apply.

[rschroed]

@decause I totally just sent a PR. And, FYI, I'm totally not a developer. I know just enough to be dangerous to us both. Let me know if you have any questions, and please test this!

Can this issue be closed?

@jillh510 yep!
