hi,

i’m konrad and i just reworked a lot of haml/sass/js code from the
coquelicot codebase :).
we currently use coquelicot from the debian repositories on
teilen.systemausfall.org and i wanted to support mobile devices for our
users.

you can find the code here:
	https://git.hack-hro.de/kmohrf/coquelicot/tree/redesign

i would like to see these changes in the upstream repository and also
have plans to work on the js codebase some more. but before i do that i
would like to hear if anyone of the current maintainers and/or
contributors has some comments on my progress and the changes i’ve made.

if you’re fine with what you’re seeing now i would start to implement a
modern js-build-stack. this would include:

* javascript build dependencies managed by npm
* a es6/es-2015 codebase based on modules
* a minified javascript distribution build via webpack

what i’ve liked about the current codebase is that i could just start
changing things after i installed the ruby deps. i’m not sure i can
achieve the same thing with the javascript-build like you did with the
sass integration (auto-rebuilds on change). but what is surely missing
from the current javascript codebase are modularity and tests and this
would be a start.

comments appreciated :)

bye konrad
