Web app model
Guest-facing web apps are built from a landing page and its ordered tiles. Published content opens in the guest experience as a responsive grid of modules.
Core concepts
Landing page shell
- Holds ordered tiles, presentation and branding choices, multilingual text, optional domains or slugs, and the owning organization.
- The guest experience turns this setup into the interactive layout shown to visitors.
Tiles
- Each tile has a type (see /reference/tile-types) and a size that influences grid placement and whether navigation opens a fuller experience.
- Tiles may link to modules such as events lists, offers, recommendations, chats, media galleries, and flash screens, depending on type.
Visits and engagement
- Landing-level visits measure opens of the experience.
- Tile-level interactions measure taps into deeper flows where instrumentation exists for that tile type.
Typical guest flow

guest["Guest opens link or QR code"] --> load["Load published landing page"]
load --> layout["Responsive tile layout"]
layout --> modules["Tile modules"]
- The guest opens the published landing page from a link, QR code, embed, or short link.
- Scoutello loads the version that matches the guest context and language where possible.
- The layout engine places tiles into the responsive grid.
- Each tile renders either an embedded surface or navigation into a focused screen.
Navigation context
Some tiles keep guests inside the landing navigation context, especially nested pages or embedded modules. If a module opens the wrong destination, verify publishing, embedding settings, and allowed domains for the parent page.
Stand-alone tile embedding
Teams can expose a single tile in isolation, for example when an external marketing site should embed one module full-width without the surrounding landing grid.
Nested landing navigation
Landing page tiles can open another linked landing page inside the guest flow. That enables hierarchies such as Overview → Speakers → Venue map without duplicating chrome.
Cross-organization reuse has tenancy implications—only publish links your organization's policies allow.
Exploration versus deep links
Many discovery tiles surface map/list experiences with saved filters or anchors. Support teams should verify whether a tile is configured as embedded (stays on the landing grid) or as card-sized navigation (opens the fuller guest view), because symptoms differ when diagnosing layout or navigation issues.
