While this could be a large scale effort, it may be broken down and approached in stages. An initial step could be to prepare mockups in figma. In addition to rigorous testing, progressively implementing changes alongside other development efforts increases the chance that any potential regressions can be caught early. This helps ensure an uninterupted experience for end users.
Overall I'm keen contribute to this project and give it a fresh look.
Interested to hear if there would be any interest. |
Start off with your mock-ups and see if there's any interest from there. I would be interested in seeing some UI changes for for the better.
