Improve visual design of links #115

Open joschne opened 11 months ago

Problem description

The text below the purple class/property names does not invite to click.

image

Links in hypertext have either a color, an underline or both. The design-challenge is: Almost every text on this page is a link. Underlines makes the text too black. 3 out of 4 categories of text are links on that page:

Currently, class and property links are purple, entity links black, literals black. We tried to use three different colors for class, property and entity links. Problem: This was confusing, since colors in hypertext links are reserved to express different states (unvisited, visited, active, hover).

Functional requirement

Find a visual design to make people understand, that the links are links.

This could be inspiring.

Maybe we just have to change black and purple: entity links purple, class and property links black.

Acceptance criteria

New users, that never saw the page, understand what is clickable.
