Operator feedback 2026-06-04:
- "pull out the left nav to make it look like it is its own floating
section versus attached to the top-left"
- "this is also true for the header for the pages"
- "the divider that runs between the right side and the sidebar.
let's make that divider go away so it all feels like one large
page"
Changes:
components/Layout.js
- Outer flex shell: `md:p-4 md:gap-4` pulls the sidebar AND the main
column in from the viewport edges on desktop. Mobile (< 768px) is
unaffected because the sidebar is `hidden md:flex` already and the
TopSearchBar / page content still run flush there.
- Desktop sidebar: `md:rounded-3xl md:overflow-hidden` so the rail
reads as a floating chip. Dropped `var(--rim-light-outer)` from
its box-shadow stack — that 1px outer ring was literally the
"vertical divider between the sidebar and the right side" the
operator wanted gone. Chip edges are now defined by
`var(--elevation-ambient)` (drop shadow) + the glass-surface-mid
tint against the body gradient that shows through `md:gap-4`.
- Main column: added `md:gap-4 min-w-0`. The gap separates the
floating TopSearchBar from the page content vertically so they
read as two distinct floating chrome elements; min-w-0 prevents
long card titles / table cells from blowing past the column width.
components/ui/TopSearchBar.js
- `md:rounded-2xl` so the header reads as a floating chip on
desktop. Mobile stays square (header is edge-to-edge there).
- Box-shadow: `rim-light-inner` + `elevation-ambient`. Deliberately
no `rim-light-outer` — the prior "remove the divider" feedback
applies to any visible 1px edge, and a hairline outer ring would
re-introduce one on mobile where the bar abuts content directly.
Tests:
- npm run test:run: 113/113
- npm run lint: clean
- npm run build: green
