@UriHerrera Hi uri.
I've quickly sketched what it feels like when developing an application using qqc2 and kirigami.
I kept it simple and later on I'll be adding missing bits and a few apps mockups illustrating these ideas, and then when we can get common ground some quick prototypes.

Let me know where we can continue this discussion. I'm very interested on this and working with you and the kirigami team :)

A file manager mock up using the concepts shown above

• global drawer for app menus

• contextual drawer for files previews and info

• header toolbar to change different view modes and search button

• footer toolbar for back, go up and go forward and info button for opening the contextual drawer

• secondary toolbar for views actions, like creating new folder, entering a url/uri, view hidden files etc...

• as the entry content the places sidebar: main view on small screens and on wide screens the main view is the places sidebar and the initial wide content view.

A mock-up of a simple text editor

• global drawer for app menus

• header toolbar to change different view modes (open documents/project folder and a new file) and search button

• footer toolbar for current document actions, undo, redo and save

• secondary toolbar as a tabbar for the opened files

• as the entry content a stack view for browsing the open files: current files and project folder, and as the wide content the editing text area. the main view is the wide content

These are wonderful @milohr I think these will make a great starting point.

We have to move this to this repo wiki or add the to the documentation site.
