We're working with community non-profits who have a Host Home or empty bedrooms initiative to develop a workflow management tool to make the process scalable (across all providers), reduce institutional bias, and effectively capture data.
Home Unite Us users (Coordinators, Guests, and Hosts) do not currently have a clear and simple way to navigate to global (i.e., not user specific or section specific) functionality after logging into the Home Unite Us application.
As a result, users cannot access critical functionality within the application on mobile, including Settings, Help, and Log Out.
High Level Approach:
Provide a simple navigation bar for all users types that links to critical functionality only (Settings, Help, Log Out). This phase will focus on mobile only, Issue #493 addresses desktop and tablet.
Solution Alignment
Considerations:
This phase will only include links for critical functionality, additional functionality will be added in the future (e.g., notifications).
This phase will include the Home Unite Us logo, future phases may support custom organization logos
Goals & Success:
Success is if each user type can easily navigate to critical functionality after logging in on mobile.
Key Features:
Navigation bar
Left-aligned: Home Unite Us logo
Right-aligned: Avatar with the user's first and last initial (no photo)
Dropdown, when the avatar is clicked
-Settings: when clicked, redirect users to a placeholder Settings page
-Help: when clicked, open in a new tab: https://github.com/hackforla/HomeUniteUs/wiki/Home-Unite-Us-User-Guide
-Log Out: when clicked, redirect users to the Home Unite Us home page (homeunite.us)
