Re: [Tools-discuss] Please provide feedback on a proposed reworking of the datatracker /doc/html/... pages

[Lars Eggert <[e-mail]>]

Dark mode will come with https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/35857" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/35857 for the entire datatracker.

Fonts used are basically the default bootstrap fonts, modulo any local font configuration in the browser. There is an ongoing discussion about what we should do in terms of fonts; hopefully the UI/UX contractor will inform this.

Regarding font sizes, I’m thinking about adding a pref stetting to cap the max font size.

If we're talking styles and legibility. Can we have a dark mode capability too? I'd like this to respect the system config, browser config, or to be a preference in the datatracker.

Cheers,

This is wonderful and beautiful - well done!

My only feedback is that the typeface used for body text is pretty harsh for reading. Two possible ways forward:

1) Use a different typeface (still monospaced but more readable); e.g., <https://mbtype.com/fonts/triplicate/" rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://mbtype.com/fonts/triplicate/>

2) Try to detect artwork / code blocks and only use monospaced for them (I know this is likely challenging and maybe controversial).

Tweaking line heights might also help; those lines are pretty long to be so squashed together, I suspect.

Cheers,
