Improve The Overall UX

### Problem The UI lacks the polish and UX necessary to give developers more confidence that Netlify CMS is the right CMS for their project and is as robust as other similar CMS’s. ### Motivation In the time I have used Netlify CMS for my projects, I have identified several key areas the UI needs attention. If I am going to invest my time and future projects in this CMS, I’d like to share some of these areas of improvement. ### Solution From an outsiders perspective I have created a few mockups showing what I believe the Netlify CMS UI should look like in order to give users a much better experience. They highlight the following improvements * Use of space * Navigation * Contextual awareness * Icons * Typography ![01-collections-view](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63278792-8f206700-c26d-11e9-9914-6d049f9b6672.jpg) ![02-editor-view](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63219882-57b49c00-c141-11e9-9f79-9fa7598b19b1.jpg) ![05-editor-view-publish-menu](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63219928-0c4ebd80-c142-11e9-9091-c5405954bca4.jpg) ![03-editor-view-menu](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63219883-57b49c00-c141-11e9-9e56-c70e58c1179f.jpg) ![04-editor-view-language-menu](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63219884-57b49c00-c141-11e9-92db-52c8bcb97042.jpg) ![06-editor-view-without-preview](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/806104/63219929-0c4ebd80-c142-11e9-9920-6b1c0289878b.jpg) ![0
