Feat: Icon-Based Navbar Enhancement #995

Closed Dhevamuthu closed 1 week ago

Dhevamuthu commented 1 month ago

Describe the feature

We propose to enhance the website's navigation bar (navbar) by replacing text-based menu items with visually appealing icons. This change aims to improve user experience, making the navbar more effective, engaging, and modern.

Objective:

Increase user engagement and satisfaction by creating a visually stimulating navbar. Enhance the aesthetic appeal of the website, aligning it with contemporary design trends. Improve the usability of the navbar, making it quicker and easier for users to navigate the site.

Benefits:

Visual Appeal: Icons are more visually appealing than text, providing a sleek and modern look to the website. Recognition and Speed: Icons can be recognized and processed faster than text, allowing users to find and select the desired navigation options more quickly. Space Efficiency: Icons take up less space, allowing for a cleaner and more organized navbar. Universal Understanding: Well-designed icons can be universally understood, reducing language barriers for international users.

Conclusion: Transitioning from a text-based to an icon-based navbar is a strategic enhancement aimed at improving the overall user experience. By making navigation more intuitive and aesthetically pleasing, we expect to see higher user satisfaction and engagement rates.

Here instead of displaying the names as buttons in the navbar, we can place icons corresponding to the names.. For home, we can place home button ad similarly for other, we can display the images as icon for its navigation IMG_20240530_104540
