I’d like to experiment with a customization to change the UX for subscribing to topics. I’d love some pointers on how I might approach this. I’m pretty sure it’s doable as a front-end only customization. I’m unclear as to whether to tackle it as a theme or a plugin and what best practices may be …

A theme component can work here (just need to make sure core has all the extension points) It looks like we are missing one outlet though… we have after-topic-footer-buttons, we would need a before-topic-notifications-button. You can achieve it now by patching the component, but that is not the rig…

You probably want to talk to @j.jaffeux who is currently working on dropdowns :slight_smile: Having said that I will almost never say no to a new outlet if required.

How best to develop this frontend customization / plugin?

Cool, @j.jaffeux I’m definitely interested to hear your insights on how best to approach this or your feedback on the design.
