The studio at a glance

One browser tab, four layers. Learn these four and you can find anything.

1. The top bar, always visible. Your round avatar on the left (the account menu). A BETA badge. The Home tab. Then one tab per open project, each with a colored initial and a close x. At the far right, the Companion star.
2. The pane, the main body. It shows one view at a time: Home (Projects or Library) or a project (Draft or Plan). Split screen gives you two independent panes side by side, each with its own tabs, tools, and zoom.
3. The left rail, the tools of the current view. In a Draft: draft options, My Drafts, Navigation, and the Document Editor. On the Plan: the canvas toolbar. On Home and in the Library: add, search, filter, and sort.
4. The right rail, under the star. The split screen toggle, full screen, the Trash, and a question mark that sends a report to the team.

The studio teaches itself

Hover almost anything and Skrib explains it. The surface tabs carry full cards: hover Draft and you get “What is it? Your writing, like a Word doc. What is it for? Write it here, and keep every version in one place.” Hover Plan: “Your planning space, right next to the writing. Outline, characters, research, so it’s not all in your head.” Tools get one-line tooltips. When you wonder what something does, hover it first.

Saving

There is no Save button anywhere in Skrib. The studio saves to the cloud as you type. The cloud icon at the bottom right of a draft tells the story: solid means saved, spinning means syncing, red means offline. When the connection returns, Skrib re-syncs on its own.
