1
A computer-implementable method for customizing navigation of User Interface (UI) resources that are displayed on a computer User Interface (UI), the computer-implementable method comprising:receiving an input of user-created metadata;associating the user-created metadata with one or more User Interface (UI) resources that are depicted on a User Interface (UI);in response to a user inputting specific metadata, retrieving one or more UI resources that are associated with the specific metadata that has been input by the user; anddisplaying, on the UI, the one or more UI resources that are associated with the specific metadata that has been input by the user.
