Home (Welcome) Screen #97

Closed GlenDC closed 9 years ago

Home screen should only be shown when the app is opened. The home screen takes the entire context and has 2 columns (or 1 column when really thin).

Normal / Wide screen:

Left Column: "What is trixel" + "newsletter / updates"
Right Column: "What do you want to do?" => Open file, New File

Thin screen has these columns as rows instead. In this state (home state) it should also not show the save button in the menu + title should be just Trixel.

Rather than being defined by a home state. This state is reached when there is no document open. So we probably want to define the current document that is wrapped as a Maybe, defining wether or not a document is open. When none is open we are in this home state, so to speak.

In short: forget about home state, just use the current document (if there is any) as an indicator.

Home screen idea was cool, and the essential part should be kept. However the page as it right now is, is too complex, focussing on 2 large buttons is the way to go imho.
