Date Range Picker (File->Examples/Open) #2840

Closed shubham-200315 closed 9 months ago

shubham-200315 commented 9 months ago

Increasing Access

Unsure

Feature request details

Where to Find the Issue:

  1. Visit p5.js Web Editor.
  2. Navigate to the "File" option.
  3. Select either the 'Open' or 'Examples' suboption.
  4. Within the chosen option, locate the table with filtering options for 'Date Created' and 'Date Updated'.

Current Condition:

As of the present moment, users can only sort their sketches based on the latest or oldest order.

Current Screenshot

Proposed Enhancement:

I propose the addition of a date range picker (utilizing any external React component) to facilitate the selection of a date range from dd:mm:yyyy to dd:mm:yyyy. This feature aims to assist users in easily locating projects created within a specific timeframe.

I would like to work on this

Sure you can buddy, but let maintainers approve it first.

I'll defer to @raclim on this because I don't have a strong opinion. I think it might be excessive and I don't want to clutter the UI with features that aren't used very often but I'm not totally opposed.

Yeah, I also think this might be excessive and would create lot of clutter to UI . It should have to be minimalistic and simple to use.

shubham-200315 commented 9 months ago

Yeah @lindapaiste you are right , like i was just keeping in mind about the scenario when there will be like 100s of sketches and user may want to see only this month sketches or something then she/he can. If you feel like you can close this issue. We can work on something more important. Thank you for responding.

@shubham-200315 @lindapaiste @pankaj-2503 Instead of a date picker we should only have the dropdown menu to choose a month and for that respective month we would have the sketches. Isn't it a good idea

shubham-200315 commented 9 months ago

@Vishal2002 , Ya might be but I am sure if maintainer are picking up this issue at first place.

I think this could be helpful, especially for folks who have a lot of sketches, but I guess I'm not envisioning all the use cases for it yet and feel that this might not be a priority feature to implement.

Maybe a feature that might achieve something similar to this in terms of pinpointing/organizing sketches, but is more complicated, would be adding tags (https://github.com/processing/p5.js-web-editor/issues/557)?

I think I might close this for now, but would be open to reopening it if there's ideas on specific scenarios where having a date range picker would be particularly helpful vs other organizational features!
