I choose YouTube to redesign because its a web app that I use in daily basis and I always have struggle when I choose to engage with the community for example comments and I generally forget to Subscribe and notice the content creator has to constatntly remind the viewers to subscribe to their channel.
Also, I noticed Google Suite products are updating their UI hence I wanted to implement modern UI which will align YouTube with Google Ecosystem.
- Make the UI Modern similar look and feel with other Google Suite products
- Bring attention to Subscribe button by adding animation.
- Add hove effects to Like/Dislike buttons for more engagement.
- Move the comments to the right tab in Video Streaming view, which makes it easier for used to scroll through the comments.
- I took inspiration from existing Google Suite products UI Design.
- Discovered and Researched more areas for improvement for YouTube UI.
- Shortlisted the places to improve.
- Coded the layout with HTML/CSS and JS with animations.
- Converted markup to React Components and built the app using react-create-app
- Bug Fixes (Responsive, setTimeout animation)
- Add clean comments
- Remove inline styles
- Add 404 SVG animation for videos not found
- Write test cases for UI Components
- Break the UI into smaller components
- Use Real YouTube API to fetch data
- Write BEM for CSS and use CSS preprocessors (LESS, SASS)
- Add Dark Mode
- Browser Compatibility testing and css fix
This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (Webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
You can learn more in the Create React App documentation.
