I was playing around with making the manager page look a bit more modern. (I see bug 55383, which is kinda related)...
I whipped up a proof of concept with a static HTML page, using Bootstrap. I put it up on github, if anyone wanted to take a look: https://github.com/larrys/tomcat-manager-bootstrap I'm not a bootstrap/css guy, and just copied an example bootstrap template, and some of the areas on the page need a bit of work. I just wanted to get a quick proof of concept, and solicet feedback before I spent a lot of time on it. I was also wondering if there was a reason why the manager servlet has the HTML inlined in the Java code, instead of using JSPs? -- Larry
