[jira] [Commented] (WOOKIE-131) Skinnable widgets

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WOOKIE-131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13120841#comment-13120841 ] 

Paul Sharples commented on WOOKIE-131:
--------------------------------------

I'd like to ask others confirm if the JQueryMobile template is the default template to use? As Ross said earlier, we have (at least) 2 different standards.

In the "wookie/widgets/widget-template" folder there is...

basic - I presume based on Ross' original layout for the skin
jquery-mobile - what it says on the tin!
setting - similar to basic in its layout
wave - similar to basic in its layout
s5 - presentation type widget - different to others

These are documented on the wookie project site and the seed-widget ant task asks the user which one these templates to base it from. Do we need to do anything else here?  (i.e if jquerymobile is now the default, then some of the templates using the 'basic'  layout could be updated)

> One of the common problems with sites that consist of multiple widgets is that they just luck messy. Each widget designer will create their own look and feel and chaos ensues.
> Wookie should provide a facility to skin widgets in order to keep them consistent on a single site. This requires:
> - design guidelines
> - common CSS
> - CSS override ability
> The design guidelines defines the recommended approach for designing a widget. It will provide a template for common widget layouts and CSS identifiers for common elements.
