Problem
Outcome: New Users quickly understand the Basics of Seed Hypermedia
A User arrives at a new Site. The Site is the knowledge repository for an existing Knowledge Community. The User already belongs to the Community but hasn't heard about Seed yet. The User must quickly understand how Seed Hypermedia works while reading the content.
Concepts to understand:
How our Open Hypertext Documents work:
Version Control.
Backlinking - both Discussions and other citations.
Permissions.
Activity.
Editable.
How our Decentralized Identities work:
People Lists.
Profiles.
Sites.
How to participate:
How do I create a comment.
How do I create a document.
Everything is linkable.
How the General Site works:
Activity Feed
Inbox?
User Stories
Seeing a list of users on a site will help the user understand how everything works and, hopefully, create their own Profile and Participate.
Seeing a clean, promising Profile will encourage him to back up or link its keys.

Sketching

An easy way to understand an identity system is to browse the Site Collaborators List and have the ; we still need to unify the experience. We have fragmented screens, which make it highly confusing for our users to understand how the system works.

Site App Navigation
Consistent across web, mobile, desktop app.
App
Menu to transition in app to all types of identity view (site home, site feed, and profile view)
Starting in the app on the site home in the bottom right hand corner there will be tabs to navigate this identity views.
The profile view will be contained in the contacts page. Here users can navigate though the profile which will contain account activity, collaborator list, members list (authors and commentors) and any other relevant information.
Additionally as contact will be contained in the contacts page, this one will show the contacts listed and when opened they will display the profile on full screen allowing users to use the bottom tabs once again to navigate back to the identities other views.
Web
On web the tabs from navigation will also be in the bottom right corner.
From here the user can easily navigate to the owner of the site's profile or feed, liberating the space form the the site navigation.
