Another component iteration for Uwazi, a revamp of the dynamic filter panel, cleaning up hierarchy, spacing, and states for better readability in both light and dark mode. The goal was to make filtering large datasets feel calm instead of overwhelming: clear typography, consistent alignment, meaningful contrast, dynamic modules, and interaction states that don’t fight for attention. Small UI refinements, big usability gain

Dark-mode navigation proposal for Uwazi, showing both the collapsed icon-only rail and the full expanded sidebar. The goal was to modernize the IA, reduce visual noise, and make space for power-user features without overwhelming first-time users. Designed as a flexible system that adapts to different screen sizes and workflows.

Seems so long ago. When Covid hit, while nobody knew what was going to happen, I quickly designed and developed a little information app for my country with vanilla css and CRA (it was the default react app generator at the time). The repo was forked and used in Brazil and Mexico with an amazing community that gathered around the app and sharing OSInt. Glad that I found the screenshot as I don't want to update the repo lol

A challenging and complex interaction for Uwazi: text referencing and paragraph-level linking inside long documents. Users needed to highlight excerpts inside other existing highlights, stack multiple reference layers, and toggle visibility without losing context. It required a system of “selection layers” that stays readable even as relationships grow dense, almost like version control, but for meaning.
