Problem to solve

With approval rules moving as part of source code rules &6351, the MVC proposal leveraged the existing design to manage approval rules. Given the new context and the engineering effort to rebuild the UI this might be a good opportunity to look for improvements to the current design.

Potential improvements:

  • Separate sections for
    • Code owners
    • Vulnerability-Check
    • License-Check
    • Coverage-Check
  • Standardise with Protected branches section
    • Allow for groups
    • Allow for roles
    • Table style
    • User display
    • Edit flow
