Creating a new step from scratch is confusing

astrojuanlu opened this issue · comments

  1. Right click, "Create new step" ✔️
  2. Name step ✔️
  3. …now what? If the filename is not found, it's unclear how to proceed ❓
create-step.mp4

Part of this is solved by removing the icon from the file path box and only providing validation/feedback through the input field when there is an error...

Other things:

  • We probably shouldn't let users connect steps unless they have a file path
  • The Pipeline step should not say "ready" if the file path is missing... in fact we could probably say "Missing file path"
  • Autofill file path from step name may be annoying, vice versa would be useful tho IMO

I think we could probably merge this issue with https://linear.app/orchest/issue/ORC-770/createbrowse-files

Fixed with #1401
