jeffbarr commented 2 years ago

Yes, good idea. Let me figure out the best way to do this while keeping the presentation clean.

Maybe convert the list to a table, with columns for type (stl, 3mf, cadquery, ...) / variants / site (printables, thangs, ...) / date added?

Pyromane commented 2 years ago

Table would definitely be a good choice for this

Which columns would be useful?

Pyromane commented 2 years ago
designation author file format field size website date
Door'd Container Machenna56k stl 2x2 thangs 18.07.2022

Yes, I like that idea. I will start to convert the existing items as soon as I have a nice block of work time, most likely later this week.

I switched the first section from a list to a table as a test and I really like it. Not sure that the author or website fields useful yet, @Pyromane , but I am open. At some point I might like to add a small icon or a link to some actual makes to each row, so I am being careful about making the table too wide.

Pyromane commented 2 years ago

I like the table very much. Thanks!

At Thangs you need an account to be able to download files. That might put some people off, but does that justify the effort? I dont know.

I have converted the list of elements to a table. There's still some data backfill to do, but it looks a lot better.

jeffbarr commented 2 years ago

All items now have dates, so I am going to close this now. Thanks for the great feedback and suggestions!
