Use material design to improve the UI http://materializecss.com/

YagoGG commented 8 years ago

Hi! I'd like to work in this issue. I was also wondering if it's a problem to use MDL instead of Materialize, since I feel more comfortable with it, and I think it's more robust.

roonyh commented 8 years ago

@YagoGG Sure. Use MDL. @shashank-sharma is also working on the UI. But with experience gained from working on this would be useful for follow up work. So don't feel bad if only one of your work will be merged :) Because there will be more issues regarding the UI following up to work on.

Looking forward for a PR.

YagoGG commented 8 years ago

Great! Thanks.

shashank-sharma commented 8 years ago

@roonyh It's great if @YagoGG is working. Currently I have been facing problem with npm start as it showing error and I am trying to find out the error so that's why I am updating most of my files. Still it might take loads of time to update and then after-all I really don't have much experience so its better if YagoGG will do. I will learn few things and if possible I might help later.

YagoGG commented 8 years ago

@shashank-sharma, I also had some trouble with the setup. If you want to chat and see if I can help, I'm on Freenode IRC #fossasia channel ;)

roonyh commented 8 years ago

@shashank-sharma @YagoGG Please show me the error. If you had trouble tell me. Don't be stuck in this initial step. If you report the troubles you had chances are we can fix something so that someone else's time is saved from going over the same thing. I also am available on #fossasia.

Again, Please ask for help If you are stuck for more than half an hour or so. Its fine.

YagoGG commented 8 years ago

@roonyh I solved mine in 10 minutes, wasn't a big deal (my node and npm packages were too old), but thanks for your disposition!

roonyh commented 8 years ago

@YagoGG ah. Great! glad its resolved :)

shashank-sharma commented 8 years ago

@roonyh I also saw that link which @YagoGG provided me I just wanted to update some files. And I guess after that update it will work fine

roonyh commented 8 years ago

@shashank-sharma ok. great!

roonyh commented 8 years ago

7 is a great starting point. We can close this and add further issues for new UI feature requests.
