Nostr Web Client

1. With some clever use of the search bar (difference between clicking and typing) I still think you can make it with one Navbar.

2. I started playing around with my own version a bit here: https://w3.do/OD6aT9j4

3. Customizable homescreen plans sound great. None-feed type widgets are indeed not easy to imagine, no revelations there for now.

4. Nostr.band is an awesome tool. I just personally don't like displaying the most "globally" trending things for onboarding, home screens etc, when no filter is applied. Curation with good filters (profile lists, dvm's, relays as communities, ...) is what can really set nostr apart in many ways, but it might be a bit too early.

Thank for this awesome input, Niel! Some feedback:

1. I love your push for a single navbar. Especially when the tab is open (to leave more space for the tab content). I think that in-tab navbar should be in the footer though - top one is harder to reach, bottom is much more convenient to tap fast to, say, switch between tabs. We will play with this idea on our end. And yes, your use of the search bar is quite smart, noted!

2. Great futuristic design! Although I hesitate to call this thing Portal, which is defined as 'the gate', and people here don't like gates :) And I still think the central part of the browser should be dedicated to content, not app icons. Do you think our app drawer sucks? Won't scale? Inconvenient? Or you just don't think content should take the central stage?

3. Yes I think being able to build custom content dashboard might be a very important unique feature of Nostr. Although generic widgets are an interesting direction too - imagine those were micro-micro-apps living right there on the homescreen...
