Update SUMO pages to not be FirefoxOS styled #1677

Closed liuche closed 6 years ago

liuche commented 6 years ago

Since we're linking to SUMO from both the product ("What's new") and the release notes on Android, the SUMO mobile pages should not look like Firefox OS. Users might also be confused that the SUMO web UI (hamburger menu, search) is actually Focus UI.

What exactly do you mean by this?

I don't think that's a case, a lot of websites use similar layout with top bar with the page title and hamburger menu. In case you have a proposal to change or improve the mobile SUMO look, please report it to Bugzilla, where SUMO issues are being tracked. Just note the SUMO platform developmnet is currently in maintenance mode so it make take longer time before being implemented.

We think the SUMO mobile pages are styled to look like Firefox OS apps, for example: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=firefox+os&t=ffab&iax=images&ia=images&iai=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.laptopmag.com%2Fwpress%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2013%2F05%2Ffirefox-os.jpg

The UI on the right looks like mobile SUMO. That being said, I think the appearance has changed since we filed this – the top bar used to be orange but now it appears to be dark (and less obviously awkward).

@liuche Do you think anything needs to change here? If so, can you file a bug on bugzilla as MikkCZ recommends?

I think the design has been updated when the new SUMO header was added. Some deeper redesign is planned for the next year to comply with the new style guides. I think @cynthiapereira already has some designs prepared for SUMO, but I am not sure if for mobile too.

That sounds great! Thanks for the details, MikkCZ! @liuche Please reopen if you think this won't solve the issue.
