The dashboard is the first place you land when you login to zeroheight. It provides you with a way to stay up-to-date on everything happening across your styleguides and gives you recommendations to help improve them.
Pick up where you left off
Your recently viewed pages are listed at the top of your dashboard. This section gives you a quick way to get back to the pages that you've been working on most recently.
If a page has been edited, you'll see an avatar of the last person to edit it alongside the time of the latest edit.
Keep track of pages missing designs or code
The dashboard helps you keep track of which pages are missing designs or code at a glance via the cards near the top.
You can access a more detailed breakdown of exactly which pages are contributing to these statistics by clicking on either card.
The breakdown gives you the list of pages in your styleguide and a status against each one:
- N/A - Your page does not require designs/code
- Added - Your page contains designs/code
- Missing - Your page requires designs/code but does not have them
Resolving the "Missing" status
From the page breakdown view, you are able to resolve "Missing" statuses on your pages. When you hover a page in the list, you can:
- Mark as not applicable - This will exclude your page from checks and will give it a status of "N/A". This stops it from counting towards the statistic on the dashboard
- Add designs/code - This action takes you to the page to allow you to edit the content and add the relevant missing block
When working through the page breakdown, it may help to use the filter towards the top right to narrow down the pages in your view.
Improving your styleguides with recommendations
The recommendations section of the dashboard offers you suggestions to improve your styleguides.
Depending on the features included in your plan, you may receive tasks in up to three categories:
- Documentation - Tasks that help you document more thoroughly
- Engagement - Tasks that help you increase your documentation's views
- Adoption - Tasks that help you increase the usage of your design system
Actioning recommendations
The simplest way to complete a recommendation is to follow its instructions and perform the task that it describes. There are other options available to you when you hover a recommendation, however:
- Archive - If you archive a recommendation you can choose from 3 options:
- This isn't important to me right now - this hides the recommendation for 2 months
- This isn't relevant to me generally - this hides the recommendation forever
- Other - also hides the recommendation forever
- Snooze for 7 days - This allows you to hide a recommendation for a week
- Done - This allows you to hide a recommendation indefinitely if you consider it "done"
Stay up-to-date with the activity feed
The activity feed gives you an overview of the updates that your team are making in zeroheight. You'll be able to see a history of changes such as content updates, page creation/deletion, release creation/deletion, and comments.
You're also able to filter the activity feed by both editor and type of activity using the filters at the top of the feed. This makes it easier to track down specific activities that may have happened some time ago.
