Thor needs a pre-authenticated landing page #6

Closed albertwu closed 8 years ago

albertwu commented 8 years ago

or better stated: we need to take a fresh look at the overall navigation/user experience for Thor:

What is the best way to present those options to a person in the most intuitive manner? Embedding key actions within body text is not likely effective. People don't read.

Perhaps a variant of https://myaccount.google.com is a good place to start.

1) Do you have any data/metrics? It's one thing that's consistently lacking when asking questions like these, otherwise it's a toss between following previous directions or assuming new ones.

2) The "manage" section follows a similar idea to the google template mentioned. Given that (which was a late addition) is there it'd make sense to match the non logged in stuff to that as well.

Modernizing the landing page seems something good to do for 1.0. Now that things have been expanded out to their more traditional structure it's more important than it was in previous designs, and it wasn't something all that much time has been spent on (and doesn't impact overall architecture).
