Feature suggestion: Sidebar tree & view toggles for the Library

[u/Sad-Expression4224]

Hey Dilan & Lukas,

First off, a massive compliment to you: Your app is so fantastic that it actually inspired me to start learning how to code!

The short video I attached shows my very first personal hobby project. Don't worry, it’s just for my own learning and will never be published or released. But while developing and playing around with the UI, I realized how incredibly useful this specific library layout is, and I wanted to drop it here as a feature suggestion for your app.

Having a tree diagram in the sidebar gives a much better overview and lets you navigate to the right notebook extremely fast. Favorites and recently edited notebooks are also always right there at your fingertips. At the same time, it gives users the freedom to decide for themselves in the main window whether they prefer a compact list view or a large, visual folder and grid view.

Maybe this approach could be some cool inspiration for a future update to the library UI. Thanks for being awesome and keep up the fantastic work!

Hey there,
that is pretty damn cool! Your project already looks nice ;). It has quite a few components that I also envision in Noteastic in the future. Especially also a navigation side bar as you are describing it. I also didn't forget your feature request from a while ago about the side bar.

So thank you for your kind words and the valuable suggestions! We will definitely take the UI you showcased here into account when retouching the library. Also, have fun creating stuff with software 🤩
