Rules

  • Start every list screen from the default version; use the search bar version only when the brief asks for it.
  • One kind of item per list.
  • The splitting control holds one idea: status, owner or type, never a mix.
  • An empty list shows one line of text in the middle; the add button stays.
  • On tablet, choosing an item opens it beside the list. See Tablet split.
