Description

@asaadmahmood this might need your recommendation on what to do here, my sense on the Windows App, v0.6 is that we should work on some of the auto-layout and min width settings.

Min width of default lay out too wide (UI gets cut-off if the app isn't sized really wide):

Min width limit too small:

Research direction
Examine the layout implementation in the Focalboard desktop app, particularly the Windows window handling code. Look at how minimum dimensions are set currently in the Electron main process or renderer. Review similar issues or PRs for layout changes. Consider using CSS media queries or window resize events to adjust layout.
