1. Find the "Content Hub" design guidelines.
What happens: There is a "Building blocks" section, but the "Content Hub" page is categorized under "Patterns". <https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/patterns/content-hub>
What should happen: The page is categorized under "Building blocks".
The content hub is not a pattern. It is not something that you can choose to follow, or implement a variation of, or ignore altogether. It is a component that you have to use if you want to access files outside your app.
Unfortunately, recategorizing the page would change its URL. This is an example of how a Web site should seldom include categories in page URLs; only when you are near-certain that the categorization won't change during the life of the page.
It may save time to fix bug 1430490 at the same time as this bug.
Hey Peter,
You're right the Content Hub and Online Accounts is a service.
I've done another guide that will be added as a section to the App Guide called System integration. It talks about how apps can integrate into the shell. For example, using the count emblem inside the Launcher, and using our Trusted Helper services - this is where the Content Hub and Online Accounts will live.
I think we can probably take them out for now until we get the new content in, if you think it confuses people? Haven't received any bugs about it so far.
Thanks,
Steph
