Plan the navigation and layout of the site, for both mobile and desktop browsers.
Prerequisite knowledge
- Section 1.3, “Concept: Themes”
- Section 2.1, “Concept: Regions in a Theme”
- Section i.6, “Guiding Scenario”
Steps
It is a good idea to plan the site layout before you start building the site and writing content; however, your plan may need to be revised either before you start implementing it or after you have some of the site built with draft content in place, based on budgetary concerns or stakeholder feedback.
- Make a list of the information that your site should present to visitors. In the farmers market scenario, this might include:
- Location of the market, with directions and a map
- Hours and days the market is open
- History of the market
- List of vendors
- Details about each vendor
- Searchable list of recipes
- Details about each recipe
- List of the most recently added recipes
