WeKan Design Principles

2024-08 Design discussion here: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/discussions/5507
Original WeKan Design:
- Uses WeKan style confirm popups Popup.afterConfirm( , translations etc. Please look at existing code to keep same style.
- Kanban, the good parts. Like was done when figuring out best design for Swimlanes https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/955
- Intuitive, easy to figure out, prevent messing up something https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Monkey-Proof-Software
- Polished UI/UX
- Menu options are there where you would expect then to be.
- Try to fix anything unexpected.
- New features added there where it makes most sense.
- Not too many toggles and settings, because that is worse. For example, Discord settings has too many toggles and settings. Just select some default.
- FOSS with MIT license
- Swimlanes
- All the use cases of WeKan feature/fix contributors
- Cross-platform. Support many CPU/OS/Browsers for Desktop and Mobile.
- Support many browsers https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Browser-compatibility-matrix . Add support for more.
- PWA https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/PWA
- On-Premise:
  - Linux amd64/arm64/s390x

    - https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Raspberry-Pi
  - Windows https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Offline
  - Mac https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Mac
Not like other software:
- But note that design of all software changes often, when they are in active development.
Not bad parts of Trello:
- Not the exact design of Trello https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/FAQ#why-does-wekan-look-so-different-now-compared-to--v09
- Not so many duplicate menus and texts like Trello
- Not so much empty space
Some good parts of Trello:
- Import from Trello
- Shortcuts https://github.com/wekan/wekan/issues/1878
- IFTTT Rules like Trello Butler https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/IFTTT
- Progress bar of checklist
Some good parts of Jira:
- Multiple assignees
