Page Layout Revision - Part II

This is a project page that bundles several feature wiki pages which belong to a larger development activity for ILIAS.

1 Aim of Project

With ILIAS 6 the main outer structure of a page was redesigned. We agreed on a layout for components mostly surraunding the content of the screen such as the Main Page, the Meta Bar, the Main Bar, Slates, Breadcrumbs and so forth. However many feature/issues had to be moved to ILIAS 7. There is a rather large list to be presented in the Abschlussevent of the PLR 6 Project.

Among the core aspects (random ordering):

• Introduce a proper concept for the notification center (currently only given by UI Components)
• Migrate more components to UI Components (by using existing/extending UI Components or providing new ones)
• Organize and define the content area properly (e.g. Actions, Tabs, Right Side Panel)
• Enhance Accessibility
• Further strengthen the UI on small screens
• ...

2 Conceptual Summary

The concepts to tackle the various problems and the selection of the problems to tackle will need to be fixed collaboratively. Since this project will provide probably again more work than can be achieved in one release and involves various maintainers, proper project management will be key. Therefore we propose to again to hire a project manager taking care of regular meeting, communication, setting prios and so forth.
