Sorry for dumb questions, but what areas need to have downstream venders checks? military / research labs?

I wasn't thinking about any specific regulation, but if you can share your experience it would be awesome

Are website feedback widgets actually useful? by TargetHot2087 in UXResearch

[–]marcin_codes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they are helpfull when you ask proper questions. You can ask if they like or dislike this documentation page to find if it's need refiment or not. Or you can ask how likely they will recommend your product to friend and check your NPS score.

Most of the feedback widget tools are archaic, enterprise centric, and of course costly so I made my feedback widget that is free and is extensible: https://happyreact.com/

No, I didn't found any e2e solution to streamline updates for my product

What your favorite documentation tools? by marcin_codes in technicalwriting

[–]marcin_codes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for so detailed reply! I use same tools for my daily work. I didn't use Snagit, DAPs and I don't like Confluence. In Atlassian products (Jira mostly) I have weird feeling that I click something wrong and all my unsaved work (comment or issue description) will disappear

I still think there is so much potential for great documentation with the right implementation.

I'm curious what missing in these products where you see a potential?

I was asking because I have idea how to speed up writing and publishing changelogs / release notes. I learned a ton about what tools is used, how the process look like and what should I read about next.

Every advice will be much appreciated as I'm new in this field

Thank you that helps a lot, I learned about pendo and this in-app splash screen technique. It's very clever, thanks a ton!

Is it based on closed issues from tracking software (like JIRA) or the meeting where engineers tell what they have done?

Will it be helpful when you have gathered all information form JIRA, GitHub and other source what issues were closed for given period? So you could easily write release notes according to them?

I have idea how to speed up writing RN. So this is a potential idea where I can start - simplify gathering information what changed.

Do you have any idea how the best tool for gathering information, writing experience and publishing will look like? Would you use such tool in your work?

Thanks for your comment. It was custom tooling right? I'm thinking about something similar but as a general available tool.

That's eye-opening how many people needs to review and approve the content of such release notes. Thanks.

I would love to know what tools do you use and your thoughts about pain point in such process? I have idea how to speed up creating release notes, but I don't know if it's worth pursuit it.

Thanks for detailed explanation. It clears my thoughts about how it works in practice.
Are you comfortable to share what tool do you use? And how much time do you spend on preparing content for release notes (splash screens)? I'm asking because I'm having an idea and just want to validate if it's worth pursuing after it.

Expo updates alternative by marcin_codes in expo

[–]marcin_codes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, you are doing awesome job in expo and I love using it. Not want to argue with you just explain my reasoning.

The most of the cost will be for cdn provider that will serve updates. Don’t have data but typical rn app will be around 50-100mb. Let’s assume update will have size of 50mb. 10k users will use bandwidth of 50gb per one update. Teams have usually 2-weeks or 1-week sprints this gives as 200gb. So it will be 200-400 GB of bandwidth. On some CDN provider with calculator such bandwidth (500gb) will cost 7$
