Description

Potential library: https://atomiks.github.io/tippyjs/


To save space on the interface, I think we could use tooltips for fields that require short clarifications.

For example: https://i.imgur.com/6dbBk72.png

These text snippets could be replaced by tooltips, which could make the interface a little less overwhelming whilst allowing users to understand the fields.

Some fields could use more information, for example this one: https://i.imgur.co/hFSCtqL.png

We'll still have to identify which snippets should be replaced by tooltips, some of the more complex ones might remain snippets.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the interface fields shown in the screenshots and identify which explanatory snippets could become tooltips. Evaluate the proposed Tippy.js library, keeping more complex explanations as snippets. Done means the selected fields provide the needed clarification through tooltips without making the interface harder to understand.
