A concept for a software installer/update manager for elementary. Fairly self explanatory, with the first screen being the home screen, the second a single application view and the third the updates screen.
some ideas: maybe change the color of the update button orange to blue,maybe instead of the arrow the number of how many updates,centralize the total size : )
I love the whole thing but I do have 1 thing I would like to point out. I think that the updates and download buttons on the title bar should not be replaced by the All Applications>Office>Writer. Otherwise it is totally awesome! Keep up the good work
1) The top banner is really stunning but the info and the checked icon bother me. 2) I don't think the info button is needed because if the user wants to get information about the app he will simply click on the app icon itself. 3) I would replace the AppCenter icon by a home icon on the main toolbar.
I want to make this so bad. You have no idea. I've been sitting here wanting to make an eOS App Store... But someone's already doing it so it's better I wait and see what they come up with.
Mario has done great work with AppCenter, and I think it looks good; I'll try to submit bug fixes and the like. However, after looking at AppCenter I can easily say I would do it 90% different than it is currently. I feel that because it's centered around Ubuntu's Software Center, PackageKit, and APT it is highly limited in what it can and cannot do. I personally am not Ok with that. I've spoken to Fabian a bit about my idea's.
If I were to build one or work on one it would be from the ground up. That's why I haven't started or planned to work on one. I do not want to undermine what Mario is doing and make it seem like his work is in vain.
Your concept is perfect!
