Design Crit May 2, 2016 Notes
IDRC Website Accessibility:
Add a sitemap (HTML and XML versions)
Add a pager to the projects table.
Add table headers to the projects table.
Projects filters are dropdowns, not text fields.
When content is changed on screen (i.e. user has selected a new search filter, or changed sorting), use a status box (using role=”status”) to communicate changes to users.
Add Search bar across entire site.
Are there / should there be options for searching? Is it needed?
OwnCloud
Use OwnCloud for day-to-day design work
Gio will look into implementing long term support for OwnCloud
- Research will be done into looking into using OwnCloud that integrates with git-LFS to enable open sharing of artifacts which are more “formal” (i.e. used for development, grant proposals, reports, papers).
- Applications:
https://apps.owncloud.com/ (directory)
https://doc.owncloud.org/server/8.0/developer_manual/app/ (developing your own)
