      The new Buttons top right next to the App Label replaced the "Console" Tab on left.
      Which is nice, but I think the coloring is odd.
      Everything else funktional (which does something) in Cloudron has the Blue color, like the "Save" Button or "Reset Icon" aka. #2196f3

      Would look like this.

      Another Idea is to place the buttons next to the actual status of the app.
      With the mindset "Oh I see the state is Running? Where can I see whats going on?"
      Well right next to you 🙂

      (ps: I am no Web Designer nor Web Developer so please excuse the poor execution)

        So moving the buttons next to the status would break many times when there is some actual different status and even the progressbar shown. Also it would mean the buttons are not consistently at the same spot, which is not nice for muscle-memory.

        The coloring is chosen to keep consistency with other views where there are action buttons on the top right and generally we don't have blue outline buttons anywhere. We have played with making them solid buttons, but then they raise quire a lot of attention to that and might distract from the action buttons in the views below.

          @nebulon Ahh okay that makes it clearer why this style was chosen.

          I can live with that explanation. 👍
