The new Cloud Console: designed for developers
Friday, October 11, 2013
In June, we unveiled the new
Google Cloud Console
, bringing together all of Google’s APIs, Services, and Infrastructure in a single interface. Across Google, we want to make sure that you have an easy way to work and build across all of our platforms. That’s why we’re focusing on improvements to the Cloud Console so you can get things done faster.
We’re introducing a new navigation bar, making it easier to switch between pages. The new bar is designed to automatically resize- expanding sections as you need them and collapsing them when you don’t.
Our URL design got some love as well. In addition to being user-visible, URLs are useful permalinks to specific views for bookmarking and sharing. We’ve heard this feedback from several developers, and our response is our new RESTful, human-readable URL structure.
There are changes behind the scenes as well. The Google Cloud Console is implemented on
Google App Engine
, and as of this redesign we are now using
Angular JS
as well. App Engine makes it easy for us to build a RESTful, autoscaling backend to power our app, and Angular JS makes it simple to communicate with our backend to dynamically render content in the frontend.
This refresh is a first step towards improving your experience, and we are just getting started. Going forward, we’re working on a set of design standards and shared components that we’ll adopt throughout all of our services in the console. We’re also continually running user studies to study common developer workflows to see how we can improve them. If you would be interested in participating in any of these studies, please
