Designer

Components: Bar charts, Stacked charts, Treemap, Matrix, Cards

Hierarchy: Context/control → status/primary answer → explanation/breakdown → detail → next step.

Developer

Interaction: Use only interactions that support the page's next analytical step; typical next level: **Category detail**.

Navigation: Category detail

Implementation: Compose from the listed native visuals/controls and the standard interaction patterns in this guide; custom visuals are exceptions.

Common mistakes

Treating the archetype as a rigid screen; adding unrelated analytical tasks; duplicating controls already handled globally.
