[Catalog] Make Canvas Catalog on Mobile Devices More User Friendly

Hi everyone,

 

We have noticed that when trying to enroll for a course in Canvas Catalog on a mobile device (cell phone or tablet) that there is a ton of scrolling involved. We would like to have Canvas Catalog less scrollable and more user-friendly for the end-user. Adding the ability to open a course they enrolled in, in a Canvas application instead of an Internet browser tab would be beneficial.

 

Before a student enrolls in a Canvas Catalog course:

Finally finding the course they were looking for after scrolling:

Finding the course in their Student Dashboard:

Selecting the "Begin Course" button:

After selecting the "Begin Course" button:

I totally support this.

Although Catalog has Bootstrap UI framework built-in, the mobile-first implementation is poor.

Catalog's navigation menu needs to me more mobile-friendly.
