Background: As part of the 2018 Annual Plan work for the foundation, the Editing team is looking at ways to improve the mobile editing experience on the web. In order to make sure that we are taking into account best practices, we need to research common patterns for UI.
Research goals:
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Invalid | None | T201877 EPIC: What are the current best UI practices for mobile editing? | |||
| Resolved | • iamjessklein | T208737 Perform comparative analysis of focus techniques |
I made a flow diagram to understand all of the elements that we should be considering in this experience.
As I'm working on this, it occurs to me that it's challenging and possibly wrong to research this from the perspective of 'what are other people doing with section editing?' Doing this is actually researching the solution, rather than the problem. The main problem that we are thinking section editing solves is helping users to stay focused within the context of the article. This is a more beneficial thing for me to research: how are other people leveraging ui to support user focus?
I am going to change the title of this task to reflect this shift.
I shared out the research with the team and this can be found embedded within the Focus presentation deck
