Simple Tradeskills completely overhauls the profession and secondary skill interface with a focus on modern minimalism and efficiency. By intercepting the standard trade skill events, it provides a resizable, semi-transparent window divided into two primary bordered containers.

Advanced List Management: Users can toggle between a classic "Sections" view with headers and a "Flat" view that sorts every recipe by difficulty level. A dedicated "Filter" dropdown allows for the isolation of specific categories (e.g., Mail, Explosives, or Axes) based on the current profession.
Dynamic Visuals: Recipe names and titles are color-coded using standard Blizzard difficulty tiers (Orange, Yellow, Green, and Gray). Reagent lists in the details pane include high-fidelity icons centered vertically with the text, which provide full item stat tooltips on hover.
Smart Inventory Tracking: The "Create" button logic includes a custom inventory scanner. If reagents are missing, the addon prevents the craft attempt and triggers a specific alert popup that identifies exactly which items are required and the remaining quantity needed.
Deep Customization: A robust settings panel (accessible via the top-right options button or the Addons menu) provides independent font size sliders for the left and right panes, background opacity control, and a "Lock Position" toggle.
Intuitive UX: The addon includes quality-of-life logic such as ESC key support to close the window and a smart toggle feature that allows users to close the interface by simply clicking the same profession button again.
