Trying fava-investor for the first time to understand it better, using recent fava commit https://github.com/beancount/fava/commit/0f55fba031ec7228766d7474e4fc461d2163ab56 & fava-investor pr https://github.com/redstreet/fava_investor/pull/60 . Don't get any errors but everything is blank, anyone else experiencing this?

Sorry, basic question: have you clicked on one of the tabs at the top?

Had the same issue in the beginning. If possible some graphical hint that those are in fact 'tabs' would be nice. The first impression is that of headings. It might be useful to start with one tab open.

On a different computer setup now but yes after clicking the text/tabs notice reports appear. Likely didn't notice these were tab links similar to @cataclysmic 's experience. Thanks, closing.

Completely agree with both of you, the initial UI page is confusing currently. I'm neither a UI designer nor a web programmer though, and could use some help here. Reopening this issue so it can get a fix, hopefully by a contributor.
