Installation notes

cd /path/to/redmine/plugins
git clone --branch v0.1.0 https://github.com/cerqueirav/redmine_modern_layout.git

Restart Redmine. No database migration is needed. Then go to Administration > Appearance.

The plugin replaces the base layout and the project overview of Redmine 6: plugins that replace the same views are not compatible. Use Redmine's default theme.

Sample images to try it are in docs/samples.
