Proposal_Interactive web tour_Biqing Su

The cBioPortal provides access to a wealth of cancer genomics data, but new users often struggle to navigate its features, and existing users may not be aware of all available tools. This project aims to enhance the user experience of the cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics by implementing an interactive web tour feature. The objective is to guide new users on how to use the portal and to showcase new features to experienced users. The project proposes using reactour for implementing the web tour and local storage to record the tour progress. The deliverables include implementing the web tour feature for the group comparison tool, allowing users to disable hints, and addressing difficulties such as automatically filling input boxes and continuing tour steps after jumping to other pages.
