Design meeting agenda for Wednesday 9th January

The Design Team provides design for the WordPress project.

Want to get involved? See the handbook and optionally drop into #design to chat. Most active design work happens in the block editor project, consider dropping into Needs design or Needs design feedback.

Figma Access

You don’t need edit access to use the Figma libraries, you can copy components from there into your own drafts. If you’re a contributor with the ability to grant edit access, please be mindful, and downgrade to view access once the initial need for edit has waned.

This week’s meeting will be at 19:00 UTC in SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. #design. Here are the suggested topics:

TrelloTrello Project management system using the concepts of boards and cards to organize tasks in a sane way. This is what the make.wordpress.com/marketing team uses for example: https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing. board check.
GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/ user handbook design help needed.
Open floor.

If there is anything you would like to see added to the agenda, please leave a comment.

From the Docs team:
We’re looking for visual references to the Terms Glossary and to surface some of the contextual states in the editor.
- General, High-Level UIUI UI is an acronym for User Interface - the layout of the page the user interacts with. Think ‘how are they doing that’ and less about what they are doing. Overview
- Top Toolbar Overview
- Main Menu Overview
- SidebarSidebar A sidebar in WordPress is referred to a widget-ready area used by WordPress themes to display information that is not a part of the main content. It is not always a vertical column on the side. It can be a horizontal rectangle below or above the content area, footer, header, or any where in the theme. Overview (Document/BlockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience.)
- Block Toolbar Overview (perhaps with Paragraph as its default)
- Pre/Post Publish Panels
- Block Inserter
- Slash Inserter
- Using Custom Plugins
These could be wireframes, labeled screenshots, GIFs/MP4s of interactions, etc.
