- Form fields - Magnolia specific fields.
- Vaadin fields - Vaadin fields that can be used with Magnolia.
- Unsupported fields by Maganolia - Not clear why we specify what Vaadin fields NOT to use. Suggest adding information on what is wrong with each field (i.e. - why it should not be used). That or simply removing this tab.
All three tabs require changes.
Form fields tab -
After discussions with Andreas and Philip, I would suggest making a few alterations to the Showcase App tabs: : Form fields tab:
- Increase real estate for the fields (i.e make the grey area bigger - stretch it to the left and right)
- Left align all fields
- Add headings:
- Field name
- Appearance
- Function (or Description)
- Consider adding visible columns for headings
- Add a short description per field. Say, max 140 characters. (Use this for... Can also be used for... etc.) Where, why, how. (Use on x pages to describe....Try not to use more than x times per page.)
- Add link to official documentation, where users can find detailed information on using fields. The link could be by the line "Showcase apps......."
