Description

Make it possible to customize the layout. For example,

  • Image on the left or right.
  • Large card-style centered image with the headline either above or below the image.
  • Large card-style centered image with the headline on top of the image. Add shadow around white text to remain readable.
  • Change padding around images. Let the user choose vertical and horizontal padding. Make it possible for content to reach the sides of the screen (0 horizontal padding) and completely eliminate the space between articles (0 vertical padding).
  • Two or more columns. Particularly useful for landscape mode.
  • Show/hide username, subreddit, awards, post type etc.
  • Show/hide preview text.

Research direction

Done would require a defined, implemented set of layout, spacing, column, metadata, and preview-text options, with the requested image and headline arrangements supported.
