  • User guide: presents the docs.yucts.com guide natively inside the app (multilingual).
  • System status: shows the status, latency, uptime, and incident announcements for each service.

Besides the 9 navigation sections, the sidebar also includes:

  • A brand header (Yucts Travel · YUCTS · Mac).
  • A following tags list of color dots (Tokyo / Osaka / Tainan / Hualien / Flights — purely decorative, not clickable).
  • A user footer at the bottom: shows the sign-in state and a gear (opens Settings).

The window remembers the section you were last in.

Single window

The macOS version is currently a single window, with no multi-window / tabbed windows yet (planned).
