Instant application of selection criteria #115

Open landswellsong opened 7 years ago

landswellsong commented 7 years ago

Apply the selection criteria instantly as the user sets them instead of having them to press a separate "Search" button. Discuss performance implications.

Maybe a configurable option not to annoy mobile users. PS: not discussed at the meeting, just a thought of mine, dumping here not to forget

Not feasible due to Promise-like nature of AJAX calls. Request can fail or take undefined amount of time and since UI uses them to fetch the data, absence of explicit action trigger will lead to undefined behavior when request is pending or failed and controls are toggled at the same time.

Then we at least need to reduce the amount of controls.

Also then we probably don't need AJAX. Anyhow this is a far future task, don't think too hard about it right now. I just wanted to say that I get lost in controls and I don't like how current UX is laid out.
