Deploy-ready version on User:Arskari/main page prototype

Eye candy, but for something actually important this time. The main page, right now, is a general overview of the site which makes sense, but doesn't really help with getting around the wiki itself. Userspace pages aren't private, so contribute if you want.

TODO:

  • Navigation sections for useful articles
  • Link to forum/community sites?
  • Current community events bumper (Ongoing, Winner, ?) Needs styling for contests
  • Online Sequencer updates/news Started, needs more entries. Changelog documentation page?
  • Wiki users/article count?
  • Using a single table for both bumpers causes wrapping issues on narrow windows/mobile, hence the div tags. Need a way to set them to the same height each.
    • The bumpers are now a flex box containing two inline elements, each with a single table contained in itself. This handles scaling and wrapping.
  • Migrate sections currently on Main Page to their own articles (History, features)

This is the welcome banner, implemented as a wikitable. __NOTOC__ prevents a table of contents from being generated, but a __FORCETOC__ could be used after this if wanted for the rest of the main page.

<div style="display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; column-gap: .3%;">

Opens a flexbox container to handle the two bumpers. flex-wrap: wrap enables wrapping at narrow screen sizes, such as shrinking a window or on a mobile device. column-gap adds space between items if on the same row.

<div style="display:inline; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: .3%; flex-grow: 1; ">

Creates an inline element inside the flexbox. flex-grow causes the sections to stretch to fill out all possible width; having both at 1 makes them share the width.

{|class="wikitable" style="width: 100%; height: 100%; border-spacing: 5px; margin-top: 0px;"
|-
| style="vertical-align: top;" |

Creates a table inside the inline element, which is what is actually seen. Width and height are set to take up all space in their container. vertical-align must be applied to the row and makes sure content is aligned to the top, rather than centering by default.

Remainder of the table. ---- creates a horizontal line to separate sections. Listing items by # creates a numbered list. Close the table and inline.

</div>

Close the flexbox.

Instrument Panel Fix

overflow-y: auto on the instrument panel creates a scrollbar that takes up width and makes the instruments arrange into rows of three instead of four like before.

This is a quick tampermonkey script that adds some extra width to the panel to fix this.
