It's been a while since the new UI for Productions and DTL was published as a preview and I would like to know your opinions about it.

WARNING: This is a personal opinion, totally personal and not related with InterSystems Corporation.

I'm going to start with the Interoperabilty screen:

Production screen:

The style is sober and without frills, following the line of cloud services design, I like it.

But, always a but...or maybe two:

In my opinion there is too much information, the left menu is superfluous, it's true that you can collapse it, but I don't want to do it each time that I use the screen. I don't need to see all the time all the productions in my NAMESPACE, the Production Items, Rule Sets and Data Transformations. I feel that the designers have suffered a case of "horror vacui"

About these menus, looks like the options are too close:

And displaying Rule and Data Transformations editors in the same screen for small screens like a laptop it's a scrolling nightmare:

 A pop-up window with the editors would be more "clean" for the common user. A positive point is that we can select how we want to open the editors.:

But maybe we have too much options.

DTL Editor:

Well, I like it, the design is simple and clear, maybe, as in the Production screen, the lines are too close together and we have lost the drag and drop to link fields.

Conclusion:

The design has been modernized and looks nice, but in my opinion as a former web developer "less is more". I would like to work with simpler screens   with a well defined behaviour, I don't need to access from the same screen to all the interoperability functionalities.

My two cents, we need to balance functionalities and a friendly and modern user interface, the new design seems to go in that direction. Thank you to all the team involved in the development!
