elementary OS explores responsive designs |
|
The elementary OS team has published a newsletter which provides an overview of work going into the distribution. One of the key areas being worked on is with responsive application layouts. "Firstly, if you're not familiar with the term 'responsive design' it refers to designing interfaces in a way such that they respond to changes in the size of the window or display. Typically when folks talk about responsive design, they're thinking in terms of shrinking things down to fit on mobile displays, but it can also mean making them work better for large desktop displays including ultrawide formats, and for us it means designing for resizable windows - including tiling. We've heard, both from people who use elementary OS and from our downstreams like System76, that there's a desire for tiling both simple and complex apps and even on smaller laptop displays. We've also heard for many years a desire to run elementary OS on tablets and phones, which would require us to make apps that can work on even smaller displays and in vertical layouts as well. So I'm excited to say that we've started to make progress towards this goal and future designs will keep responsiveness in mind." |
