Various improvements in front-end and back-end was created by Impression eStudio
Hi, 
I am using Eshop 3.6.1 in Joomla 4 and I would suggest the following improvements:

1. Backend:
The appearance of Eshop in Joomla 4 needs some fixes.
The design of Joomla 4 administration is distorted when viewing the Eshop administration. For example the buttons in the top bar are distorted.
Also, the appearance of the Eshop administration has some bugs like:
- The search and filter bar above all the tables which is compacted too much and the fields touch each other.
- The links of the categories in Catalog > Categories do not need underline. The same in Catalog > Products and all the lists.
- The main menu of Eshop (Dashboard,  Catalog, Plugins, Sales...) could have bigger fonts like the rest.
- The help description of the fields appear only on mouse over but they should appear inline and below each field by pressing the "Toggle Inline Help" button.

2. Frontend
Could you do some improvements for satisfying the Google Lighthouse? Joomla 4 has done a great step on this direction and it is not good to have a bad score when Eshop is loaded. For example:
- Some (secondary) images do not have an alt. This affects SEO and accessibility.
- Some buttons do not have an accessible name. They need the attribute aria-label to be added. The same with form elements.
- Links are not crawlable. There are links without href. Maybe they could change to buttons.

Nonetheless, Eshop remains a powerful solution.
Thank you

I would agree with the SEO elements for sure. EShop is definitely better than others when it comes to SEO.

After 11 months, I checked the latest version 3.8 which was published 10 minutes ago and unfortunately I see the same issues remain. The eshop has become better with many new features since then, but the appearance of the administration looks like a mediocre tool.

For example the icons in the administration menu are not relevant to the subject. Below I write some propositions according to FontAwesome 5.

Catalog > Labels:
fontawesome.com/icons/tag?f=classic&s=solid

Plugins > Payment:
fontawesome.com/v5/icons/credit-card?f=classic&s=regular

Plugins > Shipping:
fontawesome.com/v5/icons/truck?f=classic&s=solid

Plugins > Themes:
fontawesome.com/v5/icons/palette?f=classic&s=solid

Sales > Order:
fontawesome.com/icons/cart-shopping?f=classic&s=solid

Sales > Customer Groups:
fontawesome.com/icons/users?f=classic&s=solid

Sales > Vouchers
fontawesome.com/icons/ticket-simple?f=classic&s=solid

Sales > Discounts
fontawesome.com/icons/percent?f=classic&s=solid

System > Configuration
fontawesome.com/icons/list?f=classic&s=solid

System > Currencies
fontawesome.com/icons/coins?f=classic&s=solid

System > Stock Statuses
fontawesome.com/icons/cubes?f=classic&s=solid

System > Order Statuses:
fontawesome.com/icons/cart-shopping?f=classic&s=solid

System > Lengths
fontawesome.com/icons/ruler?f=classic&s=solid

System > Weight
fontawesome.com/icons/weight-hanging?f=classic&s=solid

System > Tax Classes
System > Tax Rates
fontawesome.com/icons/cash-register?f=classic&s=solid

System > Translation
fontawesome.com/icons/language?f=classic&s=solid

Reports > Orders
fontawesome.com/icons/cart-shopping?f=classic&s=solid

Reports > Viewed Products
Reports > Purchased Products
fontawesome.com/icons/cube?f=classic&s=solid

Also, if you want, I can send specific CSS fixes for the administration area.

Thanks
