Project Groups UI/UX Redesign

Status: In Progress Priority: Medium Assignee: @nurikarakaya Parent Issue: #2170 (Implementation of redesign of UI and UX for project groups including administrators)

Problem Statement

⚠️ Limited Information Available: The GitHub issue does not contain detailed problem statement or requirements. Additional information needed from product owner or team discussion.

This is a UI/UX redesign work item for project groups functionality, specifically focusing on administrator views and workflows.

Assumed Pain Points (to be validated):

  • Current project groups interface may have usability issues
  • Administrator workflows for managing groups need improvement
  • User experience could be streamlined

Proposed Solution

⚠️ Detailed Solution Needed: The GitHub issue does not contain implementation details.

Next Steps to Define Solution:

  1. Review existing project groups UI/UX
  2. Identify specific usability problems
  3. Create wireframes or mockups for redesigned interface
  4. Define acceptance criteria with product owner
  5. Break down implementation into smaller tasks

Potential Areas for Improvement:

  • Project group creation workflow
  • Member management interface
  • Administrator permissions and controls
  • Visual design and layout
  • Navigation and information architecture

Acceptance Criteria

⚠️ Criteria Not Defined: No acceptance criteria provided in GitHub issue.

Suggested Criteria (to be validated with team):

  • Wireframes/mockups created and approved
  • Administrator workflows identified and documented
  • UI components implemented
  • User testing completed
  • Accessibility requirements met (WCAG 2.1 AA)
  • Responsive design for mobile/tablet
  • Unit tests for new components
  • Integration tests for workflows
  • User documentation updated

Technical Notes

Architecture

Technology Stack:

  • Frontend: Angular 18 (SyRF Web)
  • UI Framework: Angular Material
  • State Management: ngrx 18
  • Backend: Project Management API (for data)

Likely Components:

  • Project groups list view
  • Group detail view
  • Member management interface
  • Administrator controls
  • Permission management

Dependencies

Related Issues:

  • Parent: #2170 (from 2021 - may need review)
  • Related: Search for "project groups" in issues for context

External Dependencies:

  • None identified (pending detailed requirements)

Blockers and Risks

Current Blockers

  • ⚠️ Requirements Undefined: Issue lacks detailed requirements and acceptance criteria
  • ⚠️ Design Artifacts Missing: No wireframes or mockups referenced
  • ⚠️ Parent Issue Context: Parent issue #2170 is from 2021, may be outdated

Risks

  • 🔶 Scope Creep: Without clear requirements, scope may expand
  • 🔶 User Impact: UI changes could disrupt existing user workflows
  • 🔶 Accessibility: Redesign must maintain/improve accessibility

Next Actions

Immediate (Before Implementation)

  1. Requirements Gathering:
  2. Schedule meeting with product owner
  3. Review existing project groups functionality
  4. Identify specific pain points and goals

  5. Define measurable success criteria

  6. Design Phase:

  7. Create wireframes for proposed redesign
  8. Get feedback from stakeholders and users
  9. Iterate on design based on feedback

  10. Create final mockups with detailed specifications

  11. Technical Planning:

  12. Break down implementation into work items
  13. Estimate effort for each component
  14. Identify technical risks and dependencies

  15. Plan testing strategy

  16. Update Documentation:

  17. Update this feature brief with detailed requirements
  18. Create technical design document if needed
  19. Document API changes if backend work required

Questions to Resolve

  1. Scope: What specific aspects of project groups UI are being redesigned?
  2. Users: Which user roles are affected? (Admins only, or all project members?)
  3. Priorities: What are the highest priority improvements?
  4. Timeline: What is the target completion date?
  5. Design: Are there existing designs or should new designs be created?
  6. Backend: Are backend API changes required?
  7. Migration: How to handle existing project groups during transition?
  8. Backwards Compatibility: Any legacy features that must be preserved?

Timeline

Created: 2025-11-17 Latest Update: 2025-11-17 Target Completion: TBD (pending requirements definition)

Source: GitHub Issue #2193 Last Synced: 2025-11-24 16:15

⚠️ Action Required: This feature brief was auto-generated but lacks sufficient detail from the source GitHub issue. The team should update this document with:

  1. Detailed problem statement - What specific usability issues exist?
  2. Proposed solution - What is the redesigned UI/UX approach?
  3. Acceptance criteria - How do we know when this is complete?
  4. Design artifacts - Links to wireframes, mockups, or design specs
  5. Technical requirements - Component breakdown and API changes

Recommendation: Consider using the Q&A iteration template to progressively refine requirements for this feature, or schedule a planning session to gather missing information.

Update GitHub Issue: Once requirements are defined, update the GitHub issue body with detailed information so future documentation syncs capture complete context.
