NU LawLab: MAPLE 3.0

This project aims to improve the design and user experience of MAPLE, ensuring it effectively serves a wide range of users—from experienced political leaders to individuals with an interest in law and policy. This semester, you will focus on refining MAPLE and designing its 3.0 version, with an emphasis on improving visual design, navigation, and content organization to enhance usability and accessibility. A key component of this project will be a re-skin of the website, aligning it with updated design guidelines to create a more intuitive and visually cohesive experience. Particular attention will be given to the Bill Details page, which will be restructured into a tabbed system to improve information hierarchy and user flow. Additionally, you will work on designing components that populate these tabs, such as lobbying disclosures, legislator voting records, and hearing transcripts, ensuring that complex legislative data is presented in a clear and digestible manner for a wide range of users.
