Meeting notes
Work has begun on the first draft of the wireframes for the HMX Custom Pathways project
Content Libraries v2 has been descoped to include only the new Library Reference Block, and the new Library Editing interface. There is currently a working version live on the OpenCraft sandbox. It might go up on edx.org in January too, but this is not certain. Axim will drive this project going forward, with the aim to get it into the Redwood release (with a few new additions which are still to be spec'd)
Course Team Page is in development
Hide Sections from Course Outline has gone through product approval, and usability testing. It is currently in development
Studio Home is in development
User interviews have started for LTI MVP
Tinymce Extra Plugins in Core is awaiting engineering review
Tim and Michelle are in the process of figuring out how to connect original product proposals to the subsequent PR's that come through
Files and Uploads will be included in Redwood
Copy & Paste at the component and unit level are live on Quince
Michael, Brian, and Gabe ran through what Paragon is and how it is used in the community
Paragon is the core design system used by edX, consisting of various components such as sorting functions and form elements
It controls responsive behavior in front-end applications
From an engineering perspective, it standardizes components across micro frontends for consistency and efficiency
Paragon is built on top of Bootstrap but has customized components that are optimized for accessibility
We discussed potential ways to bridge the gap between the UX/UI Working Group and the Paragon Working Group Meeting. This will be discussed in more detail in the next meeting
Content Libraries v2 might be a good project to start experimenting with how the interaction should work between the two working groups
We discussed the Paragon version inconsistencies across projects and applications, with some using outdated versions. There’s a gap between what's live on Master and what's available to the community
We ran out of time to discuss the user feedback for the Content Tagging project, so it was deferred to the next meeting
Action items
@Ali Hugo to improve the UX of the List of UX/UI Projects page (standardized labels / statuses, filters, sort alphabetically)
@Jenna Makowski to follow up with Anna about the LTI MVP to help unblock EduNext
