Overall Site Navigation
In additional to being a great site for learning ukulele. LearningUkulele.com is also a great Reference site for All Things Ukulele, luthiers, builders, strings, accessories, festivals, clubs, and a lot more. And, with all that info available it can be a bit of a task to find just what you're looking for.
Here's a bit of help, hopefully in your navigating the site.
Top Level Navigation
This is the top level, the first page if came to the site using the https://www.LearningUkulele.com entry point or menu bar. It shows the main sections of the site. the Lessons , Series , Songs , Books , Videos , play-alongs tracks, etc. and loads of information on the `Ukulele - our favorite instrument. This is the top-level site navigation to the main sections of the site.
Sidebar or aside
There is an additional icon, called a burger menu
, the three (3) bars in top-level navigation are that when viewing the site on smaller screens such tablets and smart phones that becomes visible to show and hide the sidebar (aside) navigation. This is a deeper dive into LearningUkulele.com to sections and pages not accessible from the top-level, main navigation area.
Search
Don't forget about what computers are good at - finding things fast .
For Learning Ukulele with Curt I use the blazingly fast, open-source, fuzzy search engine MeiliSearch for searching lessons , books , songs , series , workshops , etc. For general site searching I use DuckDuckDuckGo — The privacy first, search engine that doesn't track you.
Sidebar/aside Panel
A sidebar ( current site color might differ than shown in the images ), only visible on larger screens if the panel to the left of the main page content. For mobile phone and smaller tablet viewers the sidebar can cover the entire screen and will close when clicking on a link to a new page or section. The look might change over time. Sometimes the color scheme is based on the season.
These individual sections in the sidebar can expand revealing additional related to a section or be collapsed hiding that section.
