Hi everybody, I can really use some hands to maintain this in the future, so I am looking for people helping me to keep this project alive and usable.

There is alot of things to do (most importantly fix and extend documentation/examples), answer questions and so on, which I unfortunately don't have much time for. At least not not as much as I want. So if somebody has time to help, just reply to this issue!

I was about to post an issue/question when I saw this :) I will help in any way I can. I'm already working on an example. But, things are a little unpredictable at present and I cannot say how much time I will have from month to month.

Edit: regarding a way forward, maybe contributors can submit suggested changes as patches or whatever method github uses and you could review them before possibly merging?

I see one or two issues that I think I can easily be fixed by CSS. For example, the elbow components cause misalignment when used in columns: pic

A second thing I'd like to contribute is recreation of LCARS displays from the TV shows and movies.

3rd thing I'd like to think about is providing additional CSS files to promote any LCARS theme to any season the user likes, using your .css as the base. For example, change the width and font size for lcars-element by importing lcars-nemesis.css so your theme changes instantly from having a TNG Season 1 appearance to instead having this: pic

Just say what next steps you'd like and how you'd like to receive changes. I can install a github client on this linux machine.

Hi, thank you for much for the answer and your offer to help!

All of this are cool ideas. Please open up separate issues for all of them so we then discuss it in detail.

So my next steps would be:

That is my rough plan. This shall be a community driven project, so besides this it is up to your guys what happens next. Sky is the limit... :D

I think we have enough collaborators and issues for advancement so this issue can be closed.

Thank you guys for joining this project and working on it!
