From HNews - Feedback

[nitsujri]

Hi Adrian,

You kindly asked for feedback from this dinosaur. I played with it for a bit and have some feedback.

I played with it for a bit and I'll say fantastic work. You've taken a lot of ActiveAdmin's key benefits such as - one line modify controller+view and fixed a number of the problems that activeadmin has (i.e. polymorphism).

Only real feedback is information dense layouts. Easier columns and configurable whitespace.

If I was to start up a new project, I'd give this a go.

Hey @nitsujri,

Thanks for the kind words! I love it when users understand the product.
I'm hungry for feedback so nothing is too small.

Can you elaborate a little bit on your feedback?

information dense layouts

Is there too much information? On a particular view (index, show, edit) or on all?

Easier columns

Do you mean easier to configure?

configurable whitespace

Configurable whitespace?

@adrianthedev I think he means Avo has too much space (either padding or margin) and he needs a more compact design overall. A typical ActiveAdmin page usually has more information than Avo (said index page) because each row occupies less space.

Just try to rephrase @nitsujri words. Avo is a great product after all and personally, I prefer Avo's design over classic ActiveAdmin.
