App Search

Produce the screen where users look something up and pick a result.

Workflow

  1. Query field at the top, wide, with the query echoed in it and a clear button. Keyboard hint if there is one ("⌘K").
  2. Filters as chips or a short side panel showing their current values and the count of each, from the results actually shown.
  3. Results grouped by type when there are several (Articles, People, Files), each result with its title (query terms highlighted), its type, one line of context and where it lives.
  4. Before a query: recent searches and suggested starting points, not a blank page.

States

  • default: results for a realistic query.
  • empty: no results: echo the query, suggest a spelling or a broader filter, and offer a way to create or ask.
  • loading: result-shaped skeletons below the query.

Self-check

  • Result counts, filter counts and the results on screen agree.
  • The highlighted terms are the ones in the query field.

Markup contract (shared by every app screen)

  • States. Each state of the screen is a sibling <section data-od-state="…">: default (populated), and the ones this pattern lists below from empty, loading, error, success, no-access, long-content. Only default is visible; the others carry hidden. The kit's check renders every state, and the preview shows them side by side.
  • Slots. Keep the seed's data-od-slot names (nav, toolbar, content, empty, loading) so states, links and comments line up.
  • Links between screens. When this screen is part of a planned flow, link to another screen with its entry path in href and its screen id in data-od-goto, and use the shared navigation the brief gives instead of drawing your own.
  • The app's own components. When the brief lists the app's components, build each part from one of them and mark it data-od-component="<Name>"; mark a part with no match data-od-component="new:<Name>".
  • Sample data. Records come from the data file the brief describes, never typed into the markup row by row: one template row or card with data-od-repeat="<list>" and data-od-bind=".<field>" inside it, single values with data-od-bind="<list>[n].<field>", and data-od-format for money, dates and numbers. Every screen that shows the same record binds to the same one.
  • Tokens only. Every colour, size, radius and shadow comes from the design system's :root variables. No raw hex outside :root.
  • Platform. Web app: the shell as given. iPhone, Android, tablet or desktop app: put data-od-device on <body> (iphone, android, tablet with data-od-orientation, or desktop-app with data-od-window="mac" or "windows"); the kit draws the device frame, status bar and home indicator around the screen, so never draw them yourself. iPhone or Android: a single column 390 px (iPhone) or 412 px (Android) wide, with a bottom tab bar instead of the side nav, a top bar with the title and a back button on inner screens, and 44 px (iPhone) or 48 px (Android) touch targets. Android screens use Material patterns (top app bar, floating action button where there is one main create action). Tablet: the sidebar collapses to an icon rail with labels in a tooltip, content in two columns where the pattern has a detail pane.
  • Density. Use the density the brief gives (compact, medium or airy) with the numbers from the product UI craft rules.

Start from this shell (one HTML file, inline CSS). Replace the comments; keep the structure.
