    • trying to reconcile John and Bruno's concepts for this, more work to do
    • task column - add complete status - in green?
    • more icons wherever possible (e.g., checkbox, not word "complete")
    • remove numbering - not really steps
    • will soon move to prototyping and further feedback requests
  • Next step will be to have all UI/UX developments to date included in a prototype and more fully test with users

Feedback / Q&A

  • best practice for missing translation?

    • Leave blank if unsure; will get picked up by translator
