Using Symthink on desktop (web)

Symthink is a mobile-first app that also runs in the browser. On wider screens, full-page layouts use a centered column so lines of text stay readable.

Root navigation

The four root tabs are the same on desktop and mobile:

Tab Purpose
Home Leaders, Elections, and Following
Civic Ladder Geographic levels with Thinkers, Questions, and Dashboard
My Vision Your private knowledge tree
Dashboard Stats, Sharing, and My Forums

Layout behavior

  • Viewports wider than 768px show main content in a centered column with a maximum width of 768px.
  • Navigation, modals, and the tree editor follow the same breakpoint so the experience stays consistent across Home, civic level pages, My Vision, and Dashboard.
  • On My Vision, the Options menu opens as a popover beside the row instead of a bottom sheet.

This is automatic — no setting to change. On phone-sized screens, content uses the full width as on native mobile.

Tips

  • Install Symthink as a PWA from your browser menu for an app-like window (where supported).
  • Keyboard and mouse work throughout; tree editing supports standard text selection and scrolling.
