Uses and journeys
Which contexts each app is used in today, and the paths people take through them, from joining a workshop to printing a book.
Each app, by context
Every page is one of two kinds, a reading page or a tool page, and is seen in one or more of these contexts. The facilitator's back office is Workstation; a room's projector screen is Slideshow.
Each context has its own frame and rules: Patterns › Contexts.
