[Sugar-devel] Eager to work in fixing the UI of sugarizer.

[MR. OPTIMIST]

Thanks Alex Sir,
                        Your response to email is very much appreciated.
Sorry for the late reply.

I love to mention that I have used sugarizer for many days and I also know
that its UI has been designed with the vision that it's gonna be used by
childrens. My point is that sugarizer was developed back in 2013 and the
internet revolution at the time was very less in comparison to 2023. The UI
and Ux terms were not that considerable at that time and everyone didn't
had access to the mobile phones and internet, But as of now in 2023 the
childrens from 1 or even less than that start using technical devices and
the UX is what first thing that they interact with like games and other
applications.So the UI of sugarizer is not matching with the need of
today's generation which reduces the user interest (research) to use the
platform. So my point is we can work to enhance its UI to meet today's need
and increase the interaction time of the users of our product.

Considering my skills, I'm a second year engineering student and a self
learner, I have done multiple projects on AI based applications and
developed 2 websites as of now. To authenticate my words hereby i have
listed all my projects in my github account and link of my github account
is:-

Considering what part of the product and UI can be modified to give new
user experience, I have done research and explained it in the given pdf you
can view it thoroughly.

Thank You..
