Do & don’t

What makes it Salesforce Lightning
  • Dark navy/blue vertical icon sidebar paired with a clean white content area
  • Clear record header with stage progress pills (path bar) showing deal status
  • Small, structured info panels (Contacts, Notes) stacked on the right side
Do
  • Use a fixed icon sidebar for primary navigation
  • Show pipeline or deal stage as a horizontal progress bar
  • Group related info into clearly labeled side panels
Don’t
  • Don't hide key record info behind extra clicks
  • Don't use decorative or playful visuals in core work screens
  • Don't let colour accents overwhelm the mostly neutral palette

For AltLeads: A calling CRM should directly borrow the stage progress bar and side contact/notes panels since they map closely onto deal and call tracking.
