- syeare 4y agoI'd take a UI uglier than this and customize it rather than electron.js any day
- 0x20cowboy 4y agoSame. I encourage the project to get some UI / graphic designers on board, and do what they say. I mean, even just looking at the web site the spacing is odd, the animations are a bit all over the place, and it just looks slapped together. That kind of thing is totally cool for a cli tech product, but for something specifically supposed to be UI based… And the product screen shots have similar issues. Doing this stuff is very difficult so no shade intended - I’d love a de facto, nice looking, non cgo Go widget library. I wish them great success.
- moondev 4y agoLooks like it's possible to provide a custom theme, curious if there are more examples of this go run github.com/fynelabs/notes@latest
- httpsterio 4y agoI had a look at most apps built with it and I think it's perfectly fine. There was a lot of variability in how the widgets were used and styled so if something looks bad, I wouldn't attribute it to the library.
- IshKebab 4y agoI agree, though it's not as bad as something like FLTK. Also if you're writing Go there are basically no alternatives. Still, kind of boggles my mind why some GUI toolkit authors put so much effort into a project but don't do the relatively small amount of work to make it look nice so people will actually want to use it. It wouldn't take much more than fixing the margins and padding to be honest.
- ajwillia_ms 4y agoFor v2.3.0 (next big release) we have a UI refresh done by a graphic designer. Very exciting :)
