GR-4 Computer Prototyping

The Prototype: MyWeb

IMPORTANT:

To see the intended/correct layout please press "ctrl/command -" once (i.e. zoom-out from the default 100% view to get rid of the horizontal scroll bar of the browser). Since for this assignment window resizing was not supposed to be supported, some of our website elements are absolutely positioned and may not display correctly on your screen unless you adjust the zoom.

Platform and Software Requirements:

Our project is web based. It has been tested and is known to work on Chrome. As mentioned about the zoom level of the browser may require adjustments to ensure that the page fits inside the browser.

Shallow Parts:

1. We didn't have time to sort the bookmarks in the folders, so if you click on a particular folder, the displayed bookmarks wont change. However, note that search does work and it's awesome:). It doesn't do real time search right now so you have to press enter after putting in the query. 

2. The scroll bar at the bookmarks is only to indicate your location and not to scroll through them for now. To flip through the bookmarks use the arrow keys. 

3. When you add a new bookmark, it get's put in the beginning of the list. Ideally, it would be squeezed in between the current bookmark the user is viewing and its successor.  

4. Right now there is no way to edit a bookmark. 

5. When adding a new contact, for now, the same user gets added every time.

6. The account pop-up is not implemented yet.
