I had already rewrote the entire UI from scratch to work better on mobile and desktop but I wanted to keep it around since it had some features that I deprecated during the rebuild. Kind of amazing seeing how beautiful the Classic App for mobile was after not looking at the App for awhile.

The effort started with a polite note from Glide (below) that some things wouldn’t work. Since it had been awhile, I hadn’t realized before I when viewing the Classic App it appears to be different Glide editor than the current one. (I do miss inline list - calendar style. Great looking and when no dates met your criteria then the calendar was hidden).

Also, the handling of styling is different so my tables (actually @Darren_Murphy tables) didn’t show up correctly (NOT A GLIDE PROBLEM) and have to be added as CSS styles. Here are some of the main tabs views before and after.

Overall - not bad. But also not as clean/tight as the Classic build.
