UI Notes and Terminal Ideas

This project is not trying to be just a pretty dashboard.

It is trying to be:

• a trading terminal
• a learning system
• a quant-dev study environment

What should stay primary

The primary surfaces should be:

• chart
• orderbook
• order form

Everything else should support those.

What belongs in the learning area

The lower learn widget is a good place for:

• glossary
• docs
• lessons
• event log
• future tutorial entry points

What should not dominate the UI

Avoid letting these take over the terminal:

• redundant badges
• oversized explanatory blocks
• duplicate views that show nearly the same state

Best product split

• **terminal mode**: compact, instrument-like, market-focused
• **learn mode**: definitions, event explanation, guided reading

Future tutorial ideas

Later, tutorial mode could highlight:

“This order crossed the spread, so it executed immediately against the resting ask.”

That would turn the app into a stronger study tool than static docs alone.
