(Project) Page Layout Revision - Part III

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

Feel free to join the Working Group Page Layout Revision - Part III.

1 Aim of Project

With ILIAS 6 the main outer structure of a page was redesigned. We agreed on a layout for components mostly surrounding the content of the screen such as the Main Page, the Meta Bar, the Main Bar, Slates, Breadcrumbs and so forth. However, many functions/outputs had to be moved to ILIAS 7 first and some of them now to ILIAS 8.
Among the core aspects (random ordering):

• Implementation of a proper concept for the notification center (The concept was created within the framework of PLR II, but could not be implemented due to lack of resources. )
• Migrate more components to UI Components (by using existing/extending UI Components or providing new ones)
• Organize and define the header section (e.g. Title, Description, Actions, Tabs)
• Removing of further deprecated UI implementations
• Further strengthen the UI on small screens

2 Conceptual Summary

The project "Page Layout Revision - Part III" picks up the loose ends of the previous revisions. We want to close further conceptual gaps and continue the revision of the ILIAS UI.

To further improve and unify the ILIAS UI the scope of the third loop of the Page Layout Revision includes the transfer of additional KS elements, the discussion of the header area (Title, Description, Actions and Tab-Navigation) and the removal of further deprecated UI implementations.

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.
