26The interface would be composed together from components in similar way Wix does. The components are draggable around the screen and it will be possible to align a component into a grid with automatic alignment. In practice this enables composing (live) "dashboards" for reasoning about various data.

27The interface will be accessed from browser and mobile browser. Future work includes a native iOS app and a desktop Electron app. Though it's the same codebase for web browser interface, the mobile browser interface components will be auto-aligned for mobile screen. iOS app will have support for native notifications and widgets.
