[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Jay Skin - Technical Documentation Skin
Hi, I made a proposal on how a Technical Documentation Skin based on Flamingo could look like, see http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/JaySkin The idea behind Flavor Skins is that they just need to satisfy one major use case, not everything XWiki can do, and when writing/reading/searching documentation the focus is on content. The proposal is not complete, since there are multiple views and applications in Documentation Flavor that I didn't had time to make mockups for them, but you get the main idea and the layout. Thanks, Caty

Nice documentation skin, I like it. Now we’ll need to decide how to handle testing it and supporting more than one skin (I really believe we need to do that anyway). Question: it doesn’t look that different from the Flamingo skin so maybe there are ways to configure a Flamingo skin and not create a new skin: * Custom Color Theme * Remove/hide UI parts of Flamingo (make it configurable in Flamingo, for example the ability to hide the search bar at the top) * The search could be a Search Panel on the left * Collapsible left and right panels could be available in Flamingo too * Hide the extradoc area at the bottom (make it a space-wide and wiki-wide config option) Thanks -Vincent
Thanks, Caty
