What each of BookStack's goals does, in plain words.

A mechanic is the kind of action behind something an app lets you do, named the same way in every app. Here every BookStack goal sits under its mechanic, and each row opens the goals behind it. See what that means on one book.

Seven families, the same rows for every app #

A bar per mechanic BookStack uses, counted in goals. A family BookStack has nothing in still gets its row, so the gaps show.
