Repository design updates

We've updated the repository pages to be respoinsive, and made some layout changes to the Code tab. We've added a sidebar to elevate project information that previously has been a hidden behind clicks, and given more space to features that support the development workflow.

To enable this new design you can switch it on via Feature Preview, and if you have any issues you can diable it again too.

Profile dropdown > Feature Preview > Repository design updates > Click "Enable"

Open Feature Preview Enable Repository design updates

We want to make sure these updates work for maintainers, and would really appreciate feedback on things like:

  • UX and visual bugs
  • Performance issues
  • Confusing designs or navigation
  • Anything that feels like a disruptive change
  • Things you wish were different
  • Things you love about it 💓

Please let us know what you think by sending feedback here.

Just to answer some of the comments regarding the sidebar's position. For me somehow the right-aligned sidebar makes a lot of sense on GH and it just feels wrong for it to be on the left.

I also think it looks better than on the right

Just to answer some of the comments regarding the sidebar's position. For me somehow the right-aligned sidebar makes a lot of sense on GH if you have some useful extension.

Repository main page become so asymmetric... Can it be somehow adjusted?

I really like the design of new buttons ("clone", "new issue", etc). Are those still bootstrap buttons that have been redesigned by you or it's new framework?
