Problem/Motivation

The http://nav.d8mux.org/ prototype has completed phase 1 of its exploration of mobile navigation techniques.

But we need to take what we learned from there and implement what we learned!

Proposed resolution

Write up the lessons learned, then implement them.

Remaining tasks

First, Lewis needs to write up all the things we can implement from that prototype. He can do that in the comments of this issue.

Then, we (not Lewis) need to create individual issues for each of those things. And get to work!

:-)

User interface changes

An awesome new mobile navigation in D8.

Ok let's do this!

Existing issues

#1490288: Implement sliding navigation for touch screen devices.
#1490402: Redesign tabs and the content header
#1488962: Increase touch target size of admin menu lists
#1488866: Redesign pagers for administrative lists.
#1137920: Fix toolbar on small screen sizes and redesign toolbar for desktop
#1475204: [META] Provide a generic search/filter UI interface pattern for listing pages

Thoughts without issues

  • Create a gesture framework for touch screens for Drupal core. The more I think about this the more I think this should be a custom framework. Most built in gestures in existing libraries are not one-to-one so they don't have any user feedback. Other plug in touch libraries have very specific use cases.
  • Client side templating with JSON and HTML5 storage for a mega fast admin interface?
  • A slightly different information architecture for small screen devices. See Why Separate Mobile & Desktop Web Pages?
