Explore

Explore

A discovery feed for public Collective results and similar resources.

What it is

Explore is a discovery surface. It searches public Collective material by weighted terms, shows related lanes, and can start from a thing you are already viewing with "Explore similar". It is for browsing patterns and nearby public material, not for searching your private workspace.

Where to find it

Explore is one of your main screens. Swipe left or right to move between screens, or tap the handle bar at the bottom to open your App Drawer and pick Explore from there.

How to use it

Open Explore from the main screens, then enter words that describe the direction you want. Terms can be positive or negative, so you can pull the feed toward one idea and away from another. From a Viewer or ViewEngine context menu, Explore similar opens the same surface with the current resource as an anchor.

Use cases

Finding public examples near a project you are building. Browsing a topic without knowing the exact title. Starting from one useful item and looking for adjacent ones.

Gotchas

Explore is controlled by the Explore surface gate. If it is not in your launcher, the build or entity you are using has not enabled it. Results come from public platform discovery infrastructure; private notes and hidden resources are not a feed source just because they live in your workspace.
