Background Information
For this challenge you will be working on creating the initial user interface for a web based application that will enable operators in the agricultural industry ("The user") to become more confident in better managing their finances by providing them with data and insights about their operations and financial position.

We are very excited to see your design for this challenge!

Key Items to Focus on

  • So think Mobile First!  When designing your UI.
  • We will be running an UI prototype challenge after this one and the required front end framework to develop the user interface will be Bootstrap. So consider this when designing your concepts.
  • Avoid ios/android native interactions. As this application will be coded using web frameworks. Please keep in mind that your design should work correct on any mobile device for any OS.
