ui-prototype

Prototypes for menus, hud etc. using the CEF (HTML, CSS, JS).

Demos are available here.

Components

To have a robust component library we can work upon, we have first to settle which interactive components we need.

Examples:

• Range Slider
• Tabs
• Pagination/Lazy Loading
• Code Editor (maybe)
• Notifications
• Select2

These are web-level components.

More inspiration for what interactive components we need, can be found on the Atlassian UI docs, they have quite an amount of elements.

We will build some components from scratch, having weblike UI in a Game has to be adapted to the needs of the player. Should be more fastpaced than the web we use it.

There are more to come. We have to find that out by thinking about the existing menus and what elements we want to use in order to control them.

Game-level components are listed in the wiki.
