Problem statement
It's a bit confusing UX-wise how to create a new workspace. It's not a primary CTA and requires some scanning to go to the template page, click a template, and create workspace from a template.
Proposal
- Add "Create workspace" button to workspaces page
- Make some type of wizard thing that lets the user browse and pick a template? I could use some help with this but would be down to collaborate on a design or wireframes 😛
Vision
- A small template list might be tricky because we can imagine Coder deployments may have dozens of templates for different use cases or even tags/filters with different templates. I'm actually a fan of the "starter templates" view of navigating different templates by tag. Related: Difficult to organize and display many templates #5492
- There may also be a flow where a user enters a repo URL instead of a template, and Coder tries to find the best template for the repo
