Challenge Overview
Project Overview:
Welcome to the AAF HTML5 UI Prototype Challenge - Part1! The goal of this challenge is to create a Responsive HTML5 Prototype based on provided storyboards for Appirio Application Framework using Angular JS and Bootstrap frameworks.
As part of this challenge you will need to document all HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript code. We need clear explanation of the code to help us figure all the HTML5/CSS3/JS code functions and make it easier for future developers and the client to understand what you have built.
NOTE: This application will be using AngularJS Framework (http://angularjs.org, http://docs.angularjs.org/guide) and Bootstrap 3 (http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started). Please follow coding standards and write clean code for AngularJS data binding instead of using plain HTML code.
Tips for Success: Asking questions early and getting Copilot or PM's feedback is very important for the success of this challenge.
Competition Task Overview:
The main task of this competition is to develop HTML5 prototype based on the provided storyboard designs. Your prototype must work properly in all the required browsers.
Required Pages:
Note: For this challenge (part1) we are only concerned with building the header with header interactions and the footer, so use image placeholder for application main content as we are going to prototype it in part 2 of this challenge.
Below are the required pages for all devices.
Desktop:
1) Application Header:
- User opens the application and will see landing page (01-1_Desktop.png).
- Clicking on "Hamburger" icon to the left of Topcoder Direct will view the sub application switcher (01-2_Desktop.png)
- Clicking on “Settings” icon will view setting options (01-3_Desktop.png); note the toggle buttons should be functional.
- Clicking on "My Applications" icon will view my applications (01-4_Desktop.png), when you click on “+ Add New” button you will be able to add/remove applications by selecting them (01-5_Desktop.png).
- Clicking on "Notifications" icon will view user notifications (01-6_Desktop.png).
- Clicking on "Profile" icon will view user profile indicator (01-7_Desktop.png); profile options will be dead links for now.
- We need autocomplete feature when user starts typing in search filed (01-8_Desktop.png)
- Clicking on "Advance" icon will view advanced search options (01-9_Desktop.png)
2) Application Footer:
- Nothing special about it.
Tablet (Landscape & Portrait):
1) Application Header:

- Clicking on "My Applications" icon will view my applications (02-4_Tablet_L.png, 03-4_Tablet_P.png), when you click on “+ Add New” button you will be able to add/remove applications by selecting them (02
5_Tablet_L.png, make the portrait view from the landscape view).
- Clicking on "Notifications" icon will view user notifications (02-6_Tablet_L.png, 03-5_Tablet_P.png).

Specific HTML/CSS/JavaScript Requirements:
HTML/CSS Requirements:
- Your HTML code must be valid HTML5 and follow best practices
- Validate your code - reviewers may accept minor validation errors, but please comment your reason for any validation errors. Use the validators listed in the scorecard.
