I'm thinking about the URLs. There is a URL for the root level (http://folio-demo.aws.indexdata.com) and a URL for the Users app (http://folio-demo.aws.indexdata.com/users). Is Filip's idea that the first URL (at the root level) would somehow redirect to the second URL (for the Users app)? If not, then there is still a root level that contains something (where it says "Welcome, the Future Of Libraries Is OPEN!" now). |

Good question, Peter Murray. The more I think about the requirement to have the left-most app be the "landing page", the more I wonder if it's actually pretty complicated.... Let's consider some options:
Maybe none of these are terribly important since you can bookmark whatever app you like to start with and go there upon log in (this already works). I wonder if Hkaplanian has an opinion on what we should strive for for v1. |

If we stay with the second option – keep a home page – we can make the content of that page what we've been talking about for the "about" page (

That would work for me. |

The "Welcome..." text on the existing home page was recently re-styled and, IMO, the home page looks fine as-is. Probably even better than the legal mumbo jumbo one would see on an About page, but I guess it really depends what we decide for that page. If a user want's top open a certain app by default, they just bookmark that app instead of the home page. Seems like a good v1 solution to me. |

Yes! That is a proper developer's solution |

I really like the bookmark idea. Why over think this? I think this would be fine for V1. |

Thanks for your input, Harry!
I don't think this would work, as users can be assigned multiple permission sets. How would the system know which permission set to look at for the default app? I think Filip's suggestion that users be able to select their default app is a good one, but it seems like we are all in agreement that it doesn't need to be v1 since users can just bookmark their favorite home page.
FOLIO home isn't currently an app. It's just a page. But, if/when we replace it with a customized dashboard, we can convert it to an app. |
