AdminX Settings UX improvements (#18741)
refs. https://github.com/TryGhost/Product/issues/4060

The new settings screen is too dense, lacks hierarchy and hard to scan. This update addresses some of the problems of the initial version:
- clear hierarchy in typography and larger spaces between sections to make the overall structure is easier to scan
- using icons in the sidebar to strengthen the groups + help visual thinkers to remember settings better + just to be a bit less serious
- updated colors for better contrast + orientation (bg on the sidebar)
- updated input fields to help focus on filling forms
- other small improvements for more consistency and simplicity

Admin X Settings

Ghost Admin Settings in React

Development

Pre-requisites

  • Run yarn in Ghost monorepo root

Running the development version

Run yarn dev to start the development server to test/develop the settings standalone. This will generate a demo site from the index.html file which renders the app and makes it available on http://localhost:5173

Running inside Admin

Run yarn dev (like you would run Ghost dev normally) from the top-level repo. AdminX will automatically rebuild when you make changes.

Develop

This is a monorepo package.

Follow the instructions for the top-level repo.

  1. git clone this repo & cd into it as usual
  2. Run yarn to install top-level dependencies.

Test

  • yarn lint run just eslint
  • yarn test:acceptance runs acceptance tests
  • yarn test:unit runs unit tests
  • yarn test:acceptance path/to/test runs a specific test
  • yarn test:acceptance:slowmo runs acceptance tests in slow motion and headed mode, useful for debugging and developing tests
