Hey everyone! I’ve been working on this tool that takes in code and processes it for AI use. Recently, I decided to give the frontend a complete makeover. It’s been a big job, but I’m pretty excited about how it’s turning out.
I’ve added a bunch of new features to make it more user-friendly. There’s now a dark mode option, which is great for late-night coding sessions. I’ve also implemented a real-time preview feature so users can see how their code will look after processing.
One thing I’m struggling with is making sure the UI stays responsive on different screen sizes. Has anyone got any tips for handling this? I’m using mostly CSS flexbox, but I’m open to other approaches if they work better.
Also, I’m thinking about adding a code syntax highlighter. Any recommendations for good libraries that work well with AI code processing? Thanks in advance for any advice!
As someone who’s worked extensively with responsive design, I can offer a few suggestions for your UI challenges. While flexbox is great, consider incorporating CSS Grid for more complex layouts. It provides better control over both rows and columns, which can be particularly useful for code editors and preview panes.
For responsive design, use a combination of relative units (like em, rem, and %) and media queries. This approach allows your layout to adapt smoothly across different screen sizes. Don’t forget to test on various devices and browsers to ensure consistency.
Regarding syntax highlighting, I’ve had success with Prism.js. It’s lightweight, customizable, and supports a wide range of languages. It should integrate well with your AI code processing tool. Just ensure you’re only highlighting the necessary parts to avoid interfering with your processing algorithms.
hey there! sounds like an awesome project! have u considered using CSS Grid for layout? it’s super flexible and might help with responsiveness. also, what about prism.js for syntax highlighting? it’s pretty lightweight and customizable. btw, how does ur AI processing work? sounds fascinating!
