Restyling pop-up modals #164

Closed antdangnz closed 5 years ago

antdangnz commented 5 years ago

Currently, the pop-up modals that come up are not visually appealing, and don't provide much detail or usefulness. Some also have text wrapping issues. These modals can be better designed to improve the user experience of VisualGit.

A quick reformat of the text that's displayed and the headings would be a good improvement. The rest of the design comes down to personal preference. Could possibly colour the modal with the themes implemented in #132

Some examples:

electron_OBNqOv9sbq (Reproduce this by opening up the ./typings folder in the VisualGit repo as a repository)

electron_dWcRqUHOAO (Reproduce by failing a log-in attempt with random details)

electron_kKyK1LVOXA (Reproduce by opening up a valid local repository)

Adding to this - could be good to replace some of the informational modals (such as repo opened or push successful) with a toast/snackbar popup. This would be better for the user as they wouldn't have to click a button each time they push or open a repo as this gets tiring, but they would still get all the information they need

Agreed. Some of the modals are redundant and would be better off replaced with other popups.
