| 28 | +## Discussion Points |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +- Reviewed ongoing progress on the redesigned header, with a focus on the behavior and consistency of individual components in different states (default, hover, and active). |
| 31 | +- Finalized the decision to use ‘shadcn/ui’ Tailwind-based components as a foundational library for faster development, while remaining flexible to customize or build new components where needed. |
| 32 | +- Discussed how to ensure design scalability by keeping components modular so they can be reused in other parts of the interface like sidebars, tables, or modals. |
| 33 | +- Discussions on designing the secondary navigation bar and emphasize on the need for visual references to support future design conversations. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +## Activities Completed |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +- Began creating custom icons from scratch for consistent usage across the UI redesign. |
| 38 | +- Finalized the primary header layout, with working prototypes showing component states such as default, hover, and active; continued prototyping dropdowns, including multi-level behavior. |
| 39 | +- Initiated the creation of a design system, starting with grid structure, spacing scale, and breakpoints for responsive behavior. |
| 40 | +- Designed alternative versions of the FOSSology logo including a simplified logomark and a secondary version that could be used in compact interfaces. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## Next Steps |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +- Evaluate and finalize a typeface that supports FOSSology's open-source values (e.g., OFL-licensed or LGPL-compatible) and complements the redesigned UI style. |
| 45 | +- Wrap up all header components, including interactive elements like dropdowns and user menus, and move into designing the secondary navigation bar. |
| 46 | +- Share the current progress on heuristic evaluations to get early feedback from the community and mentors. |
| 47 | +- Expand the design system further by adding a defined color palette (with accessibility checks like contrast ratios), typography scale, and reusable spacing tokens. |
