hey sspiff!

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. Err, I guess I just put it together with styling that worked for me. The great thing about how it's written and using less, tweaks can be made real easy so I can certainly look into making changes to it so it works in a way that fills up more screen real estate. I'll look into this, if you'd like to add it as an issue to the repo, feel free or I can add it later.

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey Monk_NT!

Thanks for the feedback, it's much appreciated.

Well I wasn't sure what to name it but that kinda just stuck for me ha. Haha that's a good little story that I was unaware of, thanks for that!

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey why-el!

Thanks for the feedback!, it's really appreciated. That's a pretty good way of summing it up, you're more than welcome to share it as that :P

I am certainly going to look at adding the localStorage feature, that will certainly add a lot to tyto.

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey knes!

Thanks for the feedback, well I have used it to brush up on a few things and I've tried to write it in a way so that it's easy to pick up so I hope you find it useful.

If you have any questions, suggestions or other feedback, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm more than happy to help people out.

Thanks again for the feedback!

hey edelans,

Thanks for the feedback, minimalist and lightweight is certainly my aim.

Yeah the email feature is something I am quite happy with, that came from one of my other projects where I have made a chrome browser extension for sticky notes that you can drag around a page and then email back to yourself (can be seen on my github).

Yeah the menu feedback seems consistent so certainly something I am going to look into. I am wondering if I might need to implement the drag and drop slightly different to get rearranging working properly as intended but I'll take a look.

Thanks again for the feedback, it's much appreciated.

hey leokun,

Thanks for the feedback! yeah that was kinda the intention and inspiration with tyto, I wanted something simple that people could use. Maybe it could work on a smartboard or something.

Thanks again for the feedback, really appreciated!

hey heydanreeves,

Thanks very much for the feedback! and thank you very much for that little tip, haha I spent a while thinking, hmm this doesn't look right, it's funny how like when you're stuck into something you can sometimes overlook simple things that are going to fix an issue. "float: right;" palms face

Thanks for the feedback, it's really appreciated!

hey mhsutton,

Thanks for the feedback, yeah I was happy to get something done that I am happy to use and share. My idea has been to create something easy enough for people to use and customize and make their own.

Yeah the loading config modal seems to have thrown a couple, that was another comment that was made. Someone also suggested maybe ditching the intro modal and just letting people discover for themselves.

as per the menu, thank you for that, that's been brought up and I'm thinking based on other feedback of moving the menu items into the header so you don't have to open and close it. the tab was something else I created as a UI component and I guess I just wanted to have a go at using it in real world environment.

I had used trello quite some time ago but couldn't remember it and I guess the thing I like with tyto is that I don't need an account and its just a simple UI. My main thing was to implement whilst learning and brushing up on some tech using templating languages like handlebars.

Thanks again for the feedback and I'll look at moving the menu.

hey niyazpk!

Thanks for the heads up!

I'd hoped to avoid older browsers as burdening myself with the stress of backwards compatibility in my spare time doesn't seem too appealing. However, in saying that, if there was demand I would be more than happy to investigate. I use mac so I tend not to encounter IE too much if I can help it.

Thanks again for your input!

hey darklegend!

Thanks very much for the feedback, it's really appreciated.

Hmm yeah that would seem to be the ideal behaviour for sure. I just gave it a go and it seems you can rearrange downwards but not upwards and also not as you would wish. So if you drag something down in the same column it will go to the end of that column. This definitely isn't ideal. I had initially started implementing using my own draggable implementation but then reverted to using html5 draggable with contenteditable. I ran into some styling issues when dragging items whilst trying to remain responsive. Basically the items were styled at 90% of the column width but when you dragged them out they grew to 90% of the page and then shrunk back again when they were dropped but I was unable to hack the drag move in a way to maintain size without there being some jump in width which I didn't think looked pleasant.

This could certainly go down as an issue if you would like to add it or I can add it to the repo.

I'll try to keep it up and thanks again very much for the feedback, it's really appreciated!

Hey sidcool,

Thanks for the feedback.

That isn't the intention with tyto but people do seem to be bringing up trello.

Thanks again!

Hey zytek,

Thanks for the feedback!

Hmm have you tried refreshing the page? This does seem to be an issue currently.

Otherwise maybe there is an issue with requireJS or bootstrap modal.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Thanks a lot for this, it's really helpful to get an idea of how this would be used.

How would you suggest this is used then?

People have the option to save a file or to localStorage?

Or should it just do it in the background without people knowing or maybe it's set as a config option?

You opinion on this is really appreciated so thanks again!

Hey bromagosa!

I do take a massive compliment when people are mentioning Trello :)

Using it locally allows you to do whatever you want with it too!

... columns draggable... Now why didn't I think of that?! That's a really good idea, thanks! I can certainly look into that as a feature to add, that would be pretty cool. I would probably need to play around with that a bit as I can see there certainly being some behavioural issues when implementing that but I'd imagine it to certainly be doable.

Thanks again for the feedback! it's really appreciated.

Thanks for that. I am certainly going to see if I can tackle that issue.

Thanks again :)

Hey sekasi,

Thank you very much for the feedback!

It's in it's infant stage and I am certainly embracing the UX comments, they are very appreciated. Plenty for me to make changes to and put back out there. So, any suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Hey bukka,

That's not the intention with tyto.

tyto has come out of a common problem with managing and organising things for me personally and colleagues past and present, and my wanting to see if I could implement my own tool for tackling that issue.

The codebase is meant to be easy to read so that people can easily take it away and make it their own.

Hey Kiro,

Thanks for the feedback it's much appreciated.

Ah yes trello! I was having trouble remembering that name. It's been a couple of years since I briefly used that. Has it always required a sign in off the top of your head?

My goal wasn't a lightweight trello but to be compared to is a great compliment so thank you very much and many thanks for the feedback.

If you do try out tyto, please let me know how it goes for you, I'd be very happy to take on board any suggestions or feedback you have from using it.

Thanks again!

Ahh ok that's really good to know, I'll take a read of that article there.

How about flat buttons? Your opinion on them?

Thanks again by the way, this is really helpful!

Yeah this is strange, I am going to look into this and maybe if the intro modal disappears then this bug may disappear too hopefully.

Thanks again for your feedback, it's much appreciated!

Hey jalada,

Yeah I had this issue once or twice when developing it but I made the assumption that maybe grunt-watch wasn't catching up or something but someone else has said the same thing.

Do you mind me asking which browser you are using? I developed it using firefox and chrome. Another user has suggested maybe (if my interpretation is correct) getting rid of the intro modal completely which would solve this problem.

I really appreciate the feedback so thank you for commenting.

Hey onion2k,

Thanks very much for the feedback.

I will look into using localStorage, this has also been mentioned in another comment. Have you experience with this yourself?

I'll have a google around, are there any drawback with that approach you can think of?

Thanks again for the feedback, it's really appreciated!

Don't worry I won't take it the wrong way. I am looking for criticism, suggestions and feedback.

This was a personal project and a tool I kinda build for myself but then people showed some interest in it and made little suggestions here and there but it has never had a wider audience which is why it's here.

I will certainly look into that book for an xmas gift for myself :)

1. if I load the default config as standard, do you think that that is enough? or should there be some modal still introducing it in some way?

2. how would you tackle this? I have it in the menu as well but I wanted the ability to add a card to a particular column without using dropdowns etc. hence the icon on the column.

3. another user has suggested scrapping the menu altogether and I think this is something I will do and move to icons in the header.

4.Wow, thanks for pointing that out. This may be a bug with twitter bootstrap then as I am using their modal as I didn't want to spend time writing my own for a first iteration.

5.Cool, I will take a look at them, I haven't been too sure on save options. The initial idea was that developers wanted to save something they could then send to a PM who could load the same thing make changes and maybe send back.

6. There is a confirmation if the column is not empty, you should be asked if you wish to do so and that all cards will be lost.

Yeah it was built as a personal thing, I was using post it notes a lot and then I changed desk and had no post it notes or I would lost a post it with a load of things on, simple things like hex colors for some css or ring this person and it kinda went from there.

I really appreciate the feedback so thank you very much for your time to give me it and thanks for the link to the book to, I will certainly look at checking that out.

Thanks again!

I'm actually why it didn't start up straight away for you. Do you mind me asking which browser you were using? I am currently only really playing with it in firefox and chrome but I think I have seen where you load the page and nothing happens but when you refresh it arrives so to speak ha.

Thanks very much for the feedback! It's really appreciated. Any suggestions or the likes I am more than happy to take on board. I am just trying to get some exposure so I can see if it will gather some interest. Thanks again.

Hey bbx. Thanks very much for the feedback. Yeah the menu is a strange one, because I wasn't sure whether people would like something tucked away or something they could see but then having just icons for buttons, do you think that would communicate enough? or is it worth it for people to just have that short learning curve for what the icons do? This was my first prototype; http://jsfiddle.net/WtGYx/2/ I had icons in the header for that one. It's really great to have people to discuss this with because obviously UX is important as the goal is to make it as simple and intuitive as possible. I have to kinda agree on the dropdowns front ha. Thanks again, really appreciated.

Thankyou very much, it's in it's infant stages, I'm just seeing if there is any interest in it and getting some feedback. I'm more than happy to take on suggestions etc.

Thanks again!
