Navigation and Menu¶
The calServer v2 user interface is based on a modern Single Page Application (SPA) layout with a collapsible sidebar and a content area.
Sidebar¶
The sidebar is the central navigation element. It is organized into the following sections:

Entries are arranged in groups. Only what your permissions allow is visible: an area you may not see is not in the menu at all.

Sidebar Behavior¶
- Groups start collapsed; the group holding the page you are on is open. The sidebar therefore stays readable on first use.
- Clicking a group title expands or collapses it. Other groups are left alone: any number of them may be open.
- The state is remembered and comes back as you left it after your next sign-in. It also wins over the active page: collapse a group while working in it, and it stays collapsed.
- The entries at the top (Dashboard, Quick entry, Due & Overdue) and at the bottom (Documents, Wiki) have no group and are therefore always visible.
- The sidebar can be collapsed via the hamburger menu (only icons visible); every entry then shows as an icon.
- On mobile devices, the sidebar is displayed as an overlay
- The active menu item is highlighted
- The App / Admin switch at the bottom toggles between the work and the administration menu; both behave the same way.
Header Bar¶
The header bar contains:
- Toggle Sidebar — Burger menu to collapse/expand
- User Profile — Access to profile, settings, and logout
- Grid Settings — Quick access to column settings (on list pages)
Keyboard Navigation
The interface supports full keyboard navigation. All interactive elements are reachable via the Tab key.
