Added an updated suggestion to use A-B-C-D-E instead of numbers.
Letters instead of numbers are great! Gets rid of the awkward 0-index while keeping the mapping to the number-indexed mixdepths on the CLI reasonable.
Quick mockup just to help people visualize it:
Obviously we'd have to find a nicely looking color scheme. This is just something quick from coolors.co. Maybe a fruit that starts with a C that's not red 🔴 would be nice. The red looks quite dangerous here...
with this api we could more or less randomize it even https://colornames.org/download/ example: https://colornames.org/search/results/?type=exact&query=plum
a labeling what also help to make it more readable: (no Jar in front, maybe no bold first letter) - what do you think?
Sounds good! I'm not so sure about making the colors random, though. I feel like that might be confusing and make it harder to memorize which Jar is which. After all, the colors should be an additional memory aid, i.e. Jar A should always be orange, Jar B always be blue, etc...
Agree! No randomness required.
Would you be able to come up with a nicely looking color scheme @editwentyone?
not yet, are we already fixe with the names?
Apricot Blueberry Cherry Date Elderberry
or are there other suggestions?
what do you think @dnlggr ? "Date" in darkmode is possibly to red, but I think its ok to start with
Nice, I like it!
I agree @editwentyone that Date
is a bit too red when on black, and Blueberry
and Elderberry
might also be too close together. I'll see if I can get to implementing this before v0.1 and might play around with the colors a bit. 🎨 🧑🎨
I updated the dark mode version again, see here https://www.figma.com/file/kfejZJFlwBywvLEnPEmJo1/JoinMarket-UI?node-id=5072%3A61903
Adjusted the colors slightly, made the Date
one a bit more brown and the Elderberry
one a bit more violet-ish.
Let me know what you think!

2022-07-04: Updated suggestion, again from
Jar 0
toJar 4
:Benefit: Nicely maps 0-1-2-3-4 to A-B-C-D-E, removing the "nerd numbering" that starts with zero, without introducing additional confusion that would arise from switching to 1-2-3-4-5 (because JoinMarket still uses 0-1-2-3-4).
Previous suggestion, from
Jar 0
toJar 4
:Fruits are picked randomly, somwhat.^fn-jams (Tried to pick some that would map nicely to colors. Color accents should be very subtle, if present at all, to not confuse users with 'green is good' or 'red is bad'.)
