Home Screen - Not Logged In
When the user first installs the app and opens it, they'll see the guest view of the Portal news feed, as well as a call to action to sign in. The only options the user has at this point are to sign in, or browse/read news articles.
Home Screen - Logged In
When a user is logged in, the top bar changes to include links to "Search" and "Settings" Windows. Additionally, the home screen changes to display a collection of icons representing links to various activities inside the app. Some activities will be run natively (using data from a remote web service), but some activities will be presented to the user in embedded WebViews of HTML/Javascript from the server. The goal is to make interactions with the native app and webviews seamless to the user so the application will fill like one cohesive experience.
