Stellar: A Web-based Design System for Information Dense Applications in Spacecraft Operations(NPO-52220-1)

Modern web applications use a variety of popular libraries for user-interface design. The most common today include Material by Google, and Bootstrap by Twitter. These libraries expose common elements of a standardized design that can be used across applications (e.g. button, input field, etc.). When building applications for spacecraft operations the main problem that arises with these libraries is they are optimized for mobile, and their elements take up more screen space than necessary. The Stellar software aims to solve this problem by providing design and implementation of elements that are more efficient with screen space so more information can be displayed in smaller screen areas. This increases overall usability, as more data is available without having to scroll or increase the screen size.
