Open-event-droidgen: Use Card Views to brighten up the UI of MainActivity

[dreadpool2]

Actual Behaviour

The UI of MainActivity is quite bland

Expected Behaviour

Card Views must be used to brighten up the UI
I will organize all the similar related elements into a card.

Screenshots of the issue

I want to make the UI of the MainActivity to look somewhat like the pic below

Would you like to work on the issue?
Yes

@iamareebjamal Should I go on with this ?

[iamareebjamal]

The proposed UI is not that great IMO. I can't remember seeing colored cards anywhere. This is too obstrusive. Use cards, make them colorless. The event details card - why do we need 4/5 UI telling "Event Details". UI does need a refresh. I'm not sure this is it

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal So should I just use white cards and gather elements into them ?

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I have a doubt. I think if we change the UI of this activity there will be repercussions on other activities and fragments and thus we will end up on changing the UI of a quite a few other elements as well

[iamareebjamal]

How?

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I thought that many components will be affected but it seems that only the Login window's UI must change as well. Like it should also be migrated to the use of Cards. I have got an idea about MainActivity's UI. Should I proceed with it ?

[iamareebjamal]

Please show in prototype what you'd like to do

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I want to proceed like this :sweat_smile: . Are there any changes you recommend ?

[iamareebjamal]

Rather than having a left right screen, use vertical linear arrangement

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal Did you mean this ?

[iamareebjamal]

Yes but include logo as well

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal Should the order of the cards be ->

1. Intro
2. Featured Speakers
3. Event Details ( includes both the dates and the location)
4. Organiser Description
5. Social Links

[iamareebjamal]

Details should be 2nd

[dreadpool2]

Okay :+1:

[dreadpool2]

@iamareebjamal I am proceeding like this. Any changes I must do?

[dreadpool2]

It looks like this after adding the details

[iamareebjamal]

UI is nice, Good job, I'll be giving some pointers this evening

@dreadpool2 UI is very good. I would suggest, you create a separate card for the "Organizer Details"
