The code

  • Styled components

    • Use these as much as possible
    • Should be little to no pure CSS
    • Reuse styled components for consistency
  • Material UI

    • Use this is a last resort only !!! (Google already has our data don't let them take our creativity too)

Design Heuristics

  • Aesthetic and minimalist design

    • Use too much space and size down
    • Project cards should take a lot of space on mobile
    • Mobile first!
  • Visibility of system status

    • Loading states and error states where possible
  • Match between system and the real world
