Complete UI redesign

[line-o]

I would like to rebuild the UI from scratch.

• break up UI into components
  • package list
  • package detail
  • publish package (file upload)
  • most downloaded packages
  • log view
  • analytics
  • ....

Major benefit would be small testable and probably reusable parts. As a side effect we would get rid of jQuery. The current elements such as the menu bar do not seem to serve a real purpose anymore and only hinder to move forward. If that is of interest to the community I would start by creating mockups for each of the above.

This is the first wireframe for an overhauled landing page

It features

• a small global links bar, it's there but never in your way
• a clear indicator where you are
• a prominent search
• two boxes for exploratory access to the contents of the package repository
