Flakes

I wish more things looked like this at work. There's apps that look like native apps, there's bootstrap apps, there's all the custom CSS floating around, there's whatever's new,…

I think that it looks clean and like it'd be easy to look at all day than something that's flashy.

I'd called that "lean and clean" instead of "boring". And I wish that more user facing apps would look like that, not just internal ones. Maybe it's just me, but all these flashy…

Well done. I work in a large enterprise and have no design ability. Tired of banging bootstrap together and not quite getting the look you achieved with Flakes. Looking forward…

I really like gridforms for dense data-entry forms (http://kumailht.com/gridforms/).

This is really cool and a nice start. One big thing we are dealing with in our internal app are responsive tables. We display some data in tables, but it almost always looks like…

I think it looks sharp. But the monotonality, or lack of contrast within the layouts blends elements together, so I would find it difficult to read and interact with for an…

This is a pleasant change. My goto framework for internal apps is Bootstrap (no surprise there) although I actually end up using only a handful of elements. Flakes looks like a…

Is there any compelling reason to try this if I'm already comfortable with using Bootstrap for internal apps?

There's some nice visuals here but it's hard to see why I should choose to invest my time into learning this rather than something more standard like Bootstrap. And I don't…

This looks great. I'd like to know: 1) how does this differ from bootstrap? 2) why a whole new framework, instead of extending bootstrap?

I prefer something more feature-rich, using a known framework like Bootstrap. There's a lot more features and examples built in to inexpensive templates for Admin interfaces like…

I'd like to understand more about the rationale that led you down the path of creating this. In my years in enterprise, user and market research has driven the push to create UIs…

The research shows that there should be a greater convergence because of the cognitive dissonance that occurs otherwise. It is an inarguable fact that people are using software…

"Compelling" refers to aesthetics and feeling of reward when using the application - "This is an attractive application that makes me feel good when i use it", while "at home &…

Lots of nice work put into this, but I think some of the fundamental architectural assumptions are a little regressive. For instance, it looks like the boilerplate expects a lot…

Went to this page: http://getflakes.com/preview/browsing-data.html The 'Next' button on the grid seems to be broken. No javascript error in console. Current stable Chrome, Windows.

The 'select all' checkbox on http://getflakes.com/preview/tables.html has no effect my Chrome.

Nicely done, but if you are really trying to be a framework for internal apps (vs a design framework like bootstrap) - I would focus on adding a couple of more admin-like…

Not sure why Bootstrap bloat is a problem if it's just going to be an internal app. I'd rather go with a more familiar, and well known framework, and not have the overhead of…

I think it's strange that they use Morris.js[1] for their graphs on the main pages, but don't mention it anywhere. [1]https://morrisjs.github.io/morris.js/

Very nice work. Given the prevalence of Bootstrap and Foundation, it would probably help adoption if there were options with those as the base styling lib. I know there is a lot…

License? Scanned both the github and docs for any mention of it.

What about OpenUI5 for business apps: https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/#content/Controls/index.html From my initial tests, it's very clean MVC (a bit verbose). Also the deploy…
