Why

Both apps have pages that are only reachable by typing URLs. The Journal has no navigation bar — logged-in users can't find their routes or activities without knowing the URLs. The Planner home page is a dead end with no way to create a session. This makes the apps unusable for anyone who doesn't know the URL structure.

What Changes

  • Journal: Add a navigation bar (home, routes, activities, profile, logout) that appears when logged in. Unauthenticated users see login/register links.
  • Planner: Add a "New Session" CTA on the home page. Add a minimal header in session view with a link back to home.
  • Both apps get consistent, minimal navigation that makes all features discoverable.

Capabilities

New Capabilities

(None — this adds UI chrome to existing features, no new behavioral capabilities.)

Modified Capabilities

  • map-display: Planner home page gains a CTA and session header gains a home link

Impact

  • Files: Journal root.tsx (nav bar), Planner home.tsx (CTA), Planner SessionView.tsx (home link), new NavBar component
  • Dependencies: None
  • i18n: New translation keys for navigation labels
