RealBoard User Interface
Exploring all the features RealBoard has to offer

The RealBoard interface is designed to provide an intuitive and organized user experience. Below is a guide to understanding the various elements of the UI, starting from the left side and moving across the screen.
1. Board Information
At the top left of the screen, you will find key information about the board you are viewing:
Created By: Displays the name of the person who created the board.
Created On: Shows the date when the board was created.
Board Title: In bold, the title of the board is displayed (e.g., "Born in a country where the marriage age is the lowest").
Total Sections: In brackets next to the board title, you can see the total number of sections within the board.
2. Search Bar
To the right of the board title, you will see a Search Bar. This allows you to search for specific text, card names, keywords, or other content within the board. It helps you quickly locate information without manually browsing through the sections.
3. Notification Icon
Next to the search bar, you will find the Notification Icon. This icon alerts you to any new notifications, such as comments on your posts, updates from teacher/professors, or new assignments. A red dot will indicate when you have unread notifications.
4. Language Change Icon
The Language Change Icon allows you to switch the interface language. Currently, RealBoard supports three languages:
English
Swedish
Korean
You can change the language at any time by clicking the icon and selecting your preferred language.
5. Minimize/Maximize Icon
To the right of the language icon, there is the Minimize/Maximize Icon. This allows you to toggle the size of the interface window, letting you work in a more compact view or expand it for better visibility of all sections and cards.
6. User Profile
On the far right of the top bar, there is a User Profile Circle. This displays your profile picture and username. Clicking on this will give you access to your account settings and profile options.
7. Home Button
Below the top bar, on the left, you will find the Home Button. Clicking this will take you to the main RealBoard homepage, where you can view and access all of your boards.
8. Filter Options
Next to the Home button is the Filter Icon, which provides two types of filters to help you sort and find relevant content on the board:
Common Filter:
Most Commented Card: Sorts the cards in the board by the number of comments.
Most Reacted Card: Sorts the cards based on the number of reactions.
Filter by User:
Allows you to filter and view the cards and sections posted by specific users in the board.
9. Students and teachers/professors invite Button
To the right of the filters, there is the Invite Button, which allows you to invite other students and teachers/professors within your school/university to join the board. When inviting them, you can assign them one of the following privileges:
Read Only: The student/teacher/professor can view the board and cards but cannot make changes or post new content.
Write Only: The student/teacher/professor can post cards and make changes but cannot access admin-level settings.
Admin: The student/teacher/professor has full control over the board, including adding sections, managing users, and modifying settings.
10. Add Section Icon
Finally, on the far right, you’ll find the Add Section Icon. Clicking this allows you to create a new section within the board. Sections help organize the board by topic, making it easier for students to post relevant content and for teacher/professors to manage assignments.
