1st of March

For the first time we're now on the 4th floor of our main office in Oslo. This will be the new venue until at least after the summer.

• Forms were the main theme.
• We started the meeting by joining Design's NCI collab, where Ryan, Kristian and Christine of Team Builders presented some of their work done on our design system's first pattern for forms.
  • Will help us know how to structure forms, break them up, when to use multiple pages, when to use dropdowns instead of radio buttons, and so on.
  • Here's the Figma sketch, this is work in progress!
  • There's an open discussion going on in #forms-patterns on Slack.
  • Emphasis on a living document, it will continue to evolve based on needs.
  • Emphasis on this being a basis, each team might have individual needs that must be respected, they take precedence over these patterns.
  • Designers and Builders asks for feedback, but also contributions.
  • We developers asked about error handling, and error summaries specifically. There's nothing designed yet, as the scope is already very big for the task.
  • Designers invite us to their Figma with the beginning works of the patterns.
• There were some open discussion around Global Navigation, which is a topic of its own, so we will get back to that in better detail next forum.
  • It will come as a separate package from Core.
  • It will be highly configurable and support a default that should work for most users, with options to configure when needed.
  • Development is done as we speak and we will share more as we progress.
  • Question in the audience was "must we implement the navigation for each app?", answer is yes/no/not sure yet. We will discuss this today and see. Hopefully "yes, but it will require few lines" or "no, you can run a default navigation from application-portal".
• There were a discussion on release dates for all open pages on NCI.
  • Not set in stone, but a clear aim for all teams.
  • 14th of March Sweden will launch their website on NCI (without new global navigation).
  • 15 of March Norway will launch an open Beta-website using NCI (but not new navigation).
  • Use this beta (and test-website) to test your apps and forms!
  • 21 of March Denmark will launch on NCI (but without new global navigation).
  • 25th of April Norway will steer all traffic from `www.` to what's found on the `beta.` URL. This is the "going live" date.
  • It is expected that each launch will have a fragmented user experience when it comes down to jumping between open pages and applications.
  • "Translating" apps from Core 20 to Core 30 should be started whenever possible, and deployed individually if possible, there is no requirement for this to be a "big bang".
• In regards of Core 30 status i forgot to mention some updates.
  • Remember their board that shows what is worked on.
  • Reminds you that contributing with development is encourage!
  • Month-picker is now in Core 30!
  • Date-picker is now in Core 30!
  • Work on Table has now begun.
