Description

When opening or resizing the shell in UI mode there are two distinct crashes that can occur:

  • Small width will crash on the BigText title components
  • Small height will crash on the Pile component on the Load screen

I think that we should make the BigText component disappear when width is less than a specified size and make the Pile component Scrollable so the details can still be navigable.

Research direction

Start by running the UI mode and opening or resizing the shell to reproduce the crashes in the BigText title components and the Load screen's Pile component. Done means narrow widths no longer crash the UI, narrow heights keep the Load screen details navigable, and both cases are covered by appropriate tests if the project provides them.
