We want Dangerzone to be a tool that does one thing well (give it a document, get back a sanitized copy), and then get out of the way. This is a statement that is conceptually simple, but very hard to apply it in the real world. We need Docker/Podman to make conversions work, settings that the user needs to tweak, proper error messages, etc. Most importantly though, we want to present those features and capabilities in an intuitive way.
Why even spend resources on that? Because an app that is easy to use and hard to misuse, is a safer app. Safer than most security measures we can think of (and we have applied a lot of those in the past few months)
That's why we collaborated with designers from Superbloom and Okthanks. The considerations we presented to the designers are based on our research we conducted on 2023 on IJF, GitHub issues that Dangerzone users have created (keep 'em coming!), and untapped workflows that us devs have identified.
We have tried to come up with a new look and feel that will not alienate users, and will be simple to implement.
Don't bore us, get to the chorus
Here's the design material that we will work with:

Right from the start, you can see the following new features:
Tasks
In this section we'll track all the GitHub issues that are related with the GUI redesign. Please label those with the gui-v2 and enhancement labels.
For a speed run through those issues to an MVP that can be used by our users, take a look at #894.
