+# Better UX, easier Onboarding, more consistent UI
+
+## 1. Summary
+
+This specification aims to define a more intuitive Backend for output.  
+* This proposal is a result of the *Forum for the Future* and was proposed by Elisa Foltyn. 
+
+## 2. Why Bother?
+
+A good start is essential!  
+
+Most decisions for using or not using a CMS are made during the probation period, 
+making the first tests with a CMS crucial for ensuring that users get off to a flying start.  
+
+This in turn is essential for promoting long-term user loyalty.  
+
+A successful user onboarding process helps us increase the user engagement.
+
+## 3. Scope
+
+### 3.1 Goals
+
+This specification aims to provide a clear backend: 
+A *view* that depends on the needs of the user.  
+
+### 3.2 Non-Goals
+
+This specification does not seek to make it possible, that a user can choose 
+which options he like to see, because this will make everything more complex. 
+We would like to simplify the backend!
+
+## 4. Approaches
+
+### 4.1 Dashboard
+
+By default, a simple, clear backend is offered with few but important options.   
+If a user has more experience, he can switch to advanced mode. 
+Then he will be offered all possible options.
+
+In the *basic mode* the backend will show only important options. 
+It is going to add a switch for enable a advanced mode. 
+The *advanced mode* shows all possible options.  
+
+#### System
+
+In the system dashboard I would suggest to display the red marked areas 
+in the standard view and the others in the advanced view.
