Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The directory is stil perceived to be complex. We need to give people more guidance. The categories are a quick way of filtering on broad categories to make the requests more precise

Describe the solution you'd like Replace the top search bar box in the Directory app frontpage view with a set of icons representing the different categories.

Describe alternatives you've considered We considered implementing fly over help or wizards, but they were not perceived to be appealing

Additional context This proposal has been extensively discussed within the BBMRI-ERIC CS-IT MIABIS WG and the UI/UX team. Backend categories have been implemented and are populated in the publish script.

Nice idea.

I would love a bit integral view to multiple UX changes considering also our ambition to bring directory and other catalogues closer together.
