[recipe] - Readability of glossary objects

Here are some tips to make navigation easy and improve glossary objects readability

Limit the number of level

Limit the number of levels to 4 or 5 between the root and the most detailed level

Manage groupings

You must have between 3 and 20 direct childrens. Indeed:

  • Less than 3 direct childrens: The number of objects is not optimized. On the one hand it is necessary to multiply the objects at the N level, on the other hand it is necessary an additional click to reach the detailed information
  • More than 20 direct childrens: The eye has more difficulty to find and distinguish quickly the objects which interest it. With a maximum of 20 children on 5 levels, you can already manage 3.2 million business terms in the glossary.

Readability of objects

To improve objects readability, consider setting naming rules on your objects. For example, you can use the case of the objects to make elements stand out
