Rendered specimen
The specimen uses public-safe fixture copy. It proves rendering shape only; it does not prove beneficiary value or authorise work.
Presentation considerations
- Keep item count small enough to compare without search.
- Lead with the operating need, not the taxonomy.
- Name evidence return and related routes so the hub does not become a dead shelf.
- Use for public subject orientation; use a finder when the list is large or task matching matters.
Alternative design choices
Filterable finder
Use when the reader must search or facet a large catalogue rather than choose among a few curated paths.
Narrative landing
Use when the job is to earn belief or attention before asking the reader to choose a path.
