Configuring the "Home" Topic

Let us start by configuring your top-most topic, which is the "Home" topic and (at the beginning) is the only topic existing (with the exception of the "Clipboard", which we will ignore for the moment).

The breadcrumb allows you to invoke the topic editor screen of any topic by clicking on the small arrow left of the topic name in the breadcrumb.

This will actually invoke a screen like this one:

(Zingoolarity topic editor screen)

Wow, this is a lot of fields and options!

But luckily only a couple of them are relevant at the moment.

And again, luckily this screen is always the same whenever you edit a topic.

So once you understand it, you know the 80% of Zingoolarity which are most important.

And finally, all editor screens in Zingoolarity follow the same paradigm:
Grouped fields and functional buttons.

Now let us update two fields for the Home" topic:

• We set the Detail field to the text "Welcome to our product organization!".
  This text will be automatically shown on the top when the Home topic is in focus (like in the example shown before).
• We set the Breaking field to 3.
  This indicates that all topics rendered below the Home topic will span over 3 columns and then spill over to the next row.
  This is how we achieve the horizontal alignment pattern shown in the example before.

Now we click the Save+Back button.
This will save our changes and return to the previous screen:

(Zingoolarity "home" topic with already set detail field)

You see already, that the "Detail" which we entered is rendered to the screen.
