Description

In the current implementation, the way you get to the various screens (like the "All messages" narrow and the list of DM conversations) is from a "home page" that just has some buttons. It's a consciously prototype-level UI.

One reason we've stuck with that so far is that we don't yet have all the major screens that would naturally belong in an overall navigation for the app. The two still open now are:

For the beta, we should have some more presentable answer. Probably the home screen should be the inbox view #117, rather than a bunch of nav buttons; the navigation then has to go someplace else.

A first answer would be to copy the navigation we have in zulip-mobile, with bottom tabs. We also have some designs for an overhaul of the app's navigation. Given the beta timeline, we may not be able to iterate on those and integrate them for the beta, but we can revisit them for the next stage.
