New Clothes!
Happy New Year folks! And with this comes a new set of UI clothes for Build. We've needed a better list/table design throughout Build for a long time.
**Clarification: When we're talking about list/table design here, we're not talking about our spiffy new Table Gadget. We're talking about other areas in the system that show lists or tables. For example, the Document List, Submissions, Action List, History, etc.
While we were at it, we updated some elements that will make your apps easier to use. Here are the things we're updating today:
- New list/table design with better contrast and a higher data density (see Clarification note above)
- New "canvas" design with a simpler tabbed interface that allows you to navigate among different areas in your app
- New easier-to-use date picker
- New permissions page with clearer buttons and fields
If you're a technical user and want some inside baseball, just know that we've removed all traces of Google's Material UI which had some usability issues. Usability issues make us sad. Today, we're happier.
Enjoy!
Here's to a brighter, more contrast-y 2022!
