tabler VS Tufte CSS

This is a bug, PR welcome !

https://github.com/tabler/tabler/issues/1648

If you are looking for a dashboard system that is written in vanilla JS, I will be open sourcing my DevBoard in the next month or two. You can see it in action at https://devboard.gitsense.com/microsoft/vscode and learn more about the widget system at https://devboard.gitsense.com/microsoft/vscode?board=gitsens... Note the repo that is mentioned in the intro page hasn't been pushed to GitHub yet, but will be soon.

The server is a very simple node/express app and the front end is written in vanilla javascript. I also use GitHub's primer css (https://github.com/primer/css) and a heavily stripped down version of tabler's css (https://github.com/tabler/tabler)

Note, DevBoard is more geared towards hackers, so Tremor's is probably a much better fit if you are looking for an out of the box solution.

I'm a big fan of using Tabler for basic UIs. Really well thought out and comprehensive.

As it is often said in various designer forums, please avoid pure white (#FFFFFF) on black (here #111111), as it makes the text glow for the human eyes (therefore making it unreadable for long text). Instead, try to lower a bit the contrast on the text color.

Also, the dispositions for the buttons at the beginning (GitHub, NPM, ...) are not adjusted correctly for keyboard navigation (each button requires two tabs).

Appart from that, I do like a minimalist stylesheet, so I will also recommend Tufte CSS [0] for readers.

CSS and HTML is great for documents - not so great for applications. Most sites end up implementing their own navigation UI/UX at a minimum (an application) - many end up as more applications.

For an example of "documents", see eg:

Just for kicks, I applied Tufte CSS[0] onto the page using a browser extension. Great ROI.

A famous physicist, Richard Feynman, had a practice in his his extensive writing, e.g. a three-volume physics text, to use the methodology of sentences which then cumulate sequentially into paragraphs. (ht Ed Tufte)
