| | Style guide effort update | | | Adam J. Arling | Thoughts:- To begin, run with Bootstrap as it's familiar, in place and can be customized?
- Bootstrap4 upgrade? Can we build a styled theme on "4", or is Hyrax waiting on something to upgrade?
- Has Hyrax ever had design attention or work? Where did the green logo come from? Is there a color scheme? A Hyrax "font face"? Can we just use Samvera colors/fonts/styles (http://samvera.org/) to start if not?
Examples: - http://styleguides.io/ - A good resource showcasing many organization's pattern / style libraries and guides.
- Something relatively simple, like http://ux.mailchimp.com/patterns/ I think is a good place to start. Specifically the sections "Typography", "Form Elements", "Feedback", "Dialog".
We could set Bootstrap variables (ie. define a custom font face, buttons are squared instead of rounded, primary color is green, alert messages have a certain background color(s), etc.) which would generate our own "style guide".
