campsite-for-kanboard

An Basecamp-inspired css-only themes for Kanboard. Extremely small size. Many thanks to CSS Milligram UI, milligram.io and Basecamp for their inspriation. Font in use: Valera round Regular (from Google font)

INSTALLATION

Unzip the whole thing into your plugin folder That's it. Edit the skin.css file to start theming. :)

Theming objectives:

UX-focused, if an user takes a look, and intuitively understand how to use, then we are good :). For UI, borrow from Basecamp :D

  1. Only use CSS, minimal disruption to the code.
  2. A modern card-based theme
  3. Simple (I like simplicity, but kinda dislike minimalism)
  4. Informal & Fun (If you are adding overhead to other people's work, you gotta make it Fun and Enjoyable)

Pros:

  1. Fun to theme
  2. Learning by doing CSS
  3. Improve UX of kanboard (ofc)

Cons:

  1. I'm doing this for fun, so my coding style is quick and (extremely) dirty
  2. Change in nameing style could break the whole thing.

A few useful UX tips (for me)

  1. Out of sight, out of mind
  2. Do not suprise users
  3. People generally HATE to fill in forms.
  4. You add more...

Logic from user's point of view - to improve theme

  1. Kanboard is project oriented (duh?)
  2. Users click links/menu/navi -> expecting page reload and take them to somewhere
  3. Users click buttons -> expecting something to happen
  4. Users click tabs -> expecting page layout to stay the same, only the tab content change
  5. Card should provide a few (3) information, not a lot. (this is subjective)
