Grumpy Website

nikitonsky: We did user research and identified three groups of users:

“As a user, I want to look at three chairs in a row”

“As a user, I want to look at four chairs in a row”

“As a user, I want to look at two chairs in a row”

Perfect! Let’s develop a separate UI for each one of them

nikitonsky: At this point... Just don’t bother with tooltips

Thanks anonymous contributor for the video

nikitonsky: Don’t use two very similar, almost identical words to indicate state in a long list

nikitonsky: Here where? I’ve been looking for 10 minutes, it’s nowhere to be found.

I wish apps returned to the simple idea of having all their functions in the topbar menu instead of hiding them in multiple “special”, only seen in this app places.

Yes, menus aren’t sexy. But they are discoverable, universal, and they get the job done

nikitonsky: A popup that asks if you want to change nothing and continue doing what you were doing. Crazy
