I love zoomable UIs - something about these niche UI controls is just really cool. It's like a movie or game UI feature. Does anyone know of any collections of unusual/exotic UI controls? I always like to take inspiration from unique ways developers enable their users to browse and update their apps intuitively even if the data or structures you're working with are odd.
- Fnoord 8y agoFeels very intuitive, the trick is to still be readable from a distance while the UI is not being used. The elephant in the room is npm/Node on IoT devices (security, performance, and due to performance: cost of hardware).
- superice 8y agoNot at all. Raspberry Pi-like hardware can run Node perfectly fine. A startup I used to work at had hardware specs comparable to a Pi, but was running multiple user apps in separate processes, weighing in at over 20MiB of memory each before you even had the user code running. This ran fine up until 20 user apps or so, since the device had 512MiB of RAM on board. Ontopic: this is some very cool UI work! It is very hard to unite the desire of loads of cool features (it is a smart home after all!) with a simple and intuitive user interface.
- tehlike 8y agoAlmost all ha devices use zigbe/zwave. You only need node in main ui, not a big problem
