Here I've implemented an MVP for the new unified grid layout, which scales smoothly up to arbitrarily many participants. It doesn't yet have a special 1:1 layout, so in spotlight mode and 1:1s, we will still fall back to the legacy grid systems.
Things that happened along the way:
- The part of VideoTile that is common to both spotlight and grid tiles, I refactored into MediaView
- VideoTile renamed to GridTile
- Added SpotlightTile for the new, glassy spotlight designs
- NewVideoGrid renamed to Grid, and refactored to be even more generic
- I extracted the media name logic into a custom React hook
- Deleted the BigGrid experiment
As a first step towards adopting the Compound design system and the new Element Call designs, this pulls in Compound's color tokens and applies them to all existing components. I've tried to choose tokens based on the semantics of where they're used, but in some cases, where the new and old design systems differ in semantics, it was necessary to choose tokens based on their resulting color. These hacks can be removed as we implement more of the new designs.
There were a set of environment variables that we used for custom themes, but Compound has way too many design tokens for that approach to still be a good idea, so I decided to replace them all with a single environment variable that just lets you write arbitrary custom CSS.
This will probably be overly sensitive until we start timing out
member events (ie. https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk/pull/2446
lands) because lots of calls might have old member events from people
who've joined previously.
