We could also bake in this requirement here:
- [ ] A larger, cleaner user interface
I think we could even make all modals a bit larger, as suggested (internal) by @geropl:
:thread: While having a look at https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/pull/7715 in noticed something that is tickling me for a while now: Can we make our modals a tad bigger? :upside_down_face:
IMO that would help with:
- settings focus on the modal
- auto-wrap of context URLs in various places
- the "cramped" feeling the modal gives
Cool suggestion from @felladrin on Slack (internal):
In the modal's current empty state, the text "Example repositories" could be a link, which either:
🅰️ pre-fills the input with gitpod-io/template-
to show all example repos, or
🅱️ links to our public index of example repos: https://www.gitpod.io/docs/quickstart#templates
Current empty state | Proposal 🅰️ (pre-fill) | Proposal 🅱️ (link) |
---|---|---|
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
Another suggestion: disable spell checking, autocomplete, and autocorrect on the input field, by adding these attributes to the html input tag: autocomplete="off" autocorrect="off" autocapitalize="off" spellcheck="false"

Closing this as the next iteration for improving the new workspace modal has been added in https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/pull/15389. Cc @svenefftinge
There are still lots of improvements we could make like structure and visual improvements, but I'll close this as this issue lacks a clear problem statement and proposal.
