컴포넌트/테마 관리 UX 피드백

These boxes for the Component and Theme should go first on the list, not the bottom:

If I have dozens or hundreds of components, I have to scroll all the way down if I want to install a new one. It makes more sense if it’s at the very first position like this:

Also, do we really need all that space with the geometric shapes if they are not doing anything? I don’t know if the developers can change this, but so far all the components I installed, have the same image. And do we really need a sub menu for the extra options? Instead of this:

why not this for less clutter, fewer clicks?

Thanks for the feedback here everyone! We’re actively working on improving the theme and component selection pages, and your feedback here is very helpful.

For those interested, here’s the PR for the rollback of the new UI, while we continue to work on i…

Sure, but still, even with just 5 (using the old version), it’s best to have it at the top to avoid scrolling if all I want is to install a new component or theme.

I just updated and I shared some notes here:

New themes & components layout

Why this whole gap in the middle, along with the (imo) unnecessary block on the right? [image] Inspecting the page I see that the block on the left is only taking 28% of the width. Why not 100%? [image] And all the info on the right, along with the install button (why do we have 2 on the same page?) can go to the left, above the box (with the appropriate spacing, of course): [image] Also, if you notice, the box on the right still says “theme(s)” even though I’m in the Components page.
