What
Hi, everyone! I am rating89us and this is my first CCS proposal. I have been doing voluntary (unpaid) contributions to Monero GUI on my free time since 2020, adding new UI elements, improving UX and fixing bugs. While Monero GUI has improved a lot during the last years, there is still a lot of work to be done. I'm really motivated in making Monero GUI easy to use by anyone.
Some things I want to work on:
- General: add tooltips where still necessary, improve displaying of wallet > accounts hierarchy, discreet mode (hide amounts/balances on all pages); implement tip of the day popup; implement user onboarding popups when the wallet is opened for the first time
- LeftPanel: redesign synchronization progress bars, Socks5 proxy/TOR icon
- Send: display "All" amount as a label with close button
- Address book: user avatars, sorting
- Transactions: amount filtering, sent/received filtering, historical fiat price
- Settings: create a dedicated page to synchronization process, redesign Node page, add "change restore height" menu item
- Merchant: redesign merchant page, UI/UX for tablets/smartphones
- Wizard: redesign hardware wallet page, create a dedicated page to seed and restore height
- Accessibility: add description/navigation for UI elements (support screen readers for visually impaired users)
- White theme: improve color contrast of UI elements
- Upgrade FontAwesome icons to last version
- Android: test and improve UI/UX for tablets/smartphones
- Test and review UI/UX pull requests
- Update text and screenshots of Monero GUI guides (pdf guide and getmonero.org user guides)
