hey paulftw!

that's a nice idea too. However, do you think it would work in a nice way? if the column is filled with items then you thanks for the feedback! are hovering over an item and the column then you may go to drag but want to add an item and vice versa. i guess this could be tackled with correct behaviour in event listeners.

I'd be interested in any more input you have on this behaviour and the opinion of others on this approach.

thanks again for the feedback, it's much appreciated!

hey all!

just wanted to say to all those that have given feedback, input and insight into tyto and/or have starred, forked or started watching the repo

"THANKS VERY MUCH!"

All of it has been very good and so helpful with taking the project forward. I wasn't sure if people would take their time to show interest or give some insight etc. so once again it is very appreciated and thanks for your time. I will try to get changes implemented and new features and things ironed out as soon as I can and report back.

THANKS AGAIN!

p.s if you know of people that would be interested in getting involved or using tyto please share it with them so it can get better exposure and a wider range of feedback, insight etc.

hey wiresurfer!

Thanks for your input, it's much appreciated. I am very interested in getting this part of tyto working. Do you think personally that dropbox is the best option for this feature? or do you think maybe offering skydrive, google drive and dropbox would be better? I also need to think about how this would be tackled from a UI perspective too to be honest so any opinion you may have on that would be much appreciated too.

Thanks again for the input! feedback has been great!

hey sambeau!

thanks for getting back to me.

there are some good points you make there. A button or switch to go into column edit mode would be most appealing to me I think personally. I like that idea and I will certainly have a play with it.

as for adding cards, where do you think this should live? some people have suggested at the bottom of columns. This does sound good, my only problem is that what if the user has to scroll to find this functionality? with an icon at the top of the column this is clearer IMO, if columns had a mode then I guess the remove column icon wouldn't be visible at the same time as the add item icon. I'd value your opinion on this part of the UI.

Thanks again for your feedback and input!

hey oso2k!

Thanks very much for the feedback! That's actually a pretty awesome idea to add different templates for those things. My question for that is though, how would a user choose this from a UI perspective? Would they say define in config a special template and then use that? Maybe I can come up with ways to change the current templates to work in this manner and provide them as templates that could be swapped out. Or, would you like to have something like that become available from clicking a button? I think I could do that using requireJS.

Thanks again for this feedback and input! This is a really cool idea and a feature that would be pretty awesome to get implemented.

Much appreciated! :)

hey smarx!

Thanks for the input, it's much appreciated. This area of improvement for tyto is something that I'm really itching to get working. Will definitely check out the link.

Thanks again for this!

Thanks!! I'll look to make that change :)

Good stuff!

hey wehadfun!

Thanks forthe feedback, much appreciated!

hey erict19!

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated

hey elwell!

thanks for the heads up, this has been noted and it's my fault. I use tabs constantly because I find it easier to read and I haven't been converting back or tidying up correctly so jslint will kick up a fuss as will coffee linting I would imagine.

I am certainly going to look into this and see if there is some preprocessing tool that can help me and my hard coded ways haha

Thanks again! I'll look to sort this out.

hey blehn!

I haven't had a good look at your app because it requires a sign up, although the home page looks good. However, as there is no demo of it in action without me poking around I can't truly make an opinion of it unless signing up etc.

That's where tyto differs and that's where its charm lies. It's intention is that there is no account necessary and that the UI is simple and maybe not completely polished to most peoples tastes. The source is completely open and it's aim is that it's easy to learn the codebase and what's going on so that people are free to take it and make it into whatever they want, however they want, wherever they want.

tyto is definitely going to be made mobile friendly in the future and that's a major goal to have it working responsive to device.

I hope that clears it up a little.

in early conception I had toyed with the idea of tyto being an acronym for 'tool you take over' for this reason.

Thanks for sharing!

hey jinesh!

That's awesome, thanks for that, it actually does look much better like that. I may change the template to fit in with that structure if you're ok with that. Some people have expressed not having the modal at all so I may change the default behaviour to not show it on load (this is just an option in the config).

Thanks again for the feedback! it's really appreciated and good work!

hey ish!

Thanks for the feedback, it's really appreciated. This is my aim, I want people to be more in power and control of the tools they use. With tyto, you could make it completely your own and behave as you wish without worrying about the backend part of it. All I ask is that if people do come up with something cool or host their own version they just share the link in the README. This is purely because it's really interesting to me to see how people are using it or what ideas they have come up with.

Checklists? Do you mean checklists on the actual cards themselves? This would be a really easy change. You could change the template for items and have that up and running pretty quick I think. It might require some changes to how the email template works and how json is generated but I can't see it being too major.

Thanks again for the feedback it's really appreciated, I'll see if I can take a look at how checklists would work or if you happen to have a go, let me know, I'd be happy to help or hear about it.

hey onion2k,

this insight is really appreciated as it will really help to improve tyto. How would you suggest maybe showing this information to the user? a modal or pop up? or something less intrusive just like a spinner when it saves? Or should there be some intro that asks the user if localStorage is ok to be used? Maybe a disappearing banner? then a button could easily be added to the header for removing said data maybe.

I guess I will really need to assess how many buttons make their way into the header really. What's you opinion on drop buttons or maybe some of the actions being icon buttons and some text plus icons? I'm just thinking of screen real estate and the responsive element.

on mobile I would like the traditional hidden menu I think when it comes to it.

Thanks for the insight and feedback again, it's really appreciated.

hey gavinpc

Thanks for the heads up! will certainly keep that in mind.

hey loceng!

glad you like it! it was a little thing I wanted to add so it wasn't overkill but was just there to sort of add a little something if you know what I mean.

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey easytiger!

I'm sorry to hear that, have you tried refreshing as some others have had this problem too it seems.

Thanks for the heads up!

hey kps!

thanks for the feedback. I thought `draggable` was supported in safari but maybe this isn't the case. I'll have to have a little look into this.

Thanks again for the feedback!

This is something I would like to provide but whilst keeping it disconnected from a database. Integrating with google drive or the likes is what appeals to me most at the moment.

hey sambeau!

the positioning of the new card button has been a piece of feedback that has come up a fair bit it seems and I'm really happy people have brought it up. I wasn't too happy with it's placement but wasn't sure where to put it but knew there needed to be that functionality.

Hmm interesting about an edit mode for columns. Could you elaborate on this? I would have had maybe the ability to move and delete a column but adding a new one should be from the header menu no? Your opinion is very appreciated so thanks for your feedback.

Thanks again!

hey bshimmin!

I did start out using class in coffeescript but I couldn't get it to work quite how I wanted to at the time but I was brushing up on my coffeescript and it is a really valid point and therefore I shall probably revisit this to refactor into that form. It does make sense after all.

Thanks for the feedback!

hey bcoughlan!

yeah me too! that's why I wanted to share it at this stage and see if could generate enough interest to take it much further. The more feedback generated, a better picture can be made of how far it can go and in what direction. To be honest I am just really pleased that as many people have provided feedback and shown interest as they have. It's majorly appreciated.

Thanks again!

hey nizazpk!

haha thanks very much for the compliment!

I am always interested to share things and what makes it even better is when people will have some insight, suggestion, opinion or criticism that I can take on board as the more feedback, the better a piece of work can become. It really helps and I'm really amazed and grateful for the amount of feedback tyto has received.

Thanks again!

hey mercer!

Thanks for your insight, I will certainly look into taking on board a lot of peoples ideas and insights.

Thanks again!

Yeah I do like the idea, to me it is better than having some database for it or the likes. Going to compile an issue list of what's come up in the feedback and start looking into making those changes.

Thanks again for your feedback!

ahh ok cool, so I will just remember the very last thing and have it as an action in the header maybe? how does that sound?

Thanks for the feedback, once again much appreciated.

hey alistairjcbrown!

Thanks for the feedback!, it's much appreciated. I am certainly going to take a look into this, many people have mentioned trello.

Thanks again!

hey quarterto!

Ahh thanks for that! I obviously had overlooked it. Although it looks like I may get rid of the modals altogether and opt for menu actions within the header and loading a default config. What's your opinion on this approach?

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey untothebreach!

Yeah export actually sounds much more fitting and the correct wording.

localStorage is certainly something I am going to be looking into to add to this. Another poster had suggested the available save APIs from say google drive, what do you think of that approach?

Thanks again for the feedback!

her erre,

Yeah I noticed I made that mistake too lol.

Thanks for the feedback! it's super appreciated as I can take all of this on board.

google drive is certainly something that would be very cool to be using.

with an undo though, how many done actions would you want to be able to undo?? Because I would store column json as deleted I guess and then retemplate it in at the appropriate position if I can.

Thanks again for the feedback, much appreciated!
