Launchday
Dianna Smiley
I've been working on shipping the latest version of Launchday. The story I'm trying to focus on is something like "You're launching soon and need to be 100% focused on your product. Don't lose precious days designing, coding, and testing a product site. Instead, build one in minutes."
What do you y'all think? Would love some feedback from @Ab or @Adolfo?

Any chance you're going to link the grid up to a public gallery of sites built with Launchday?

I've spent a lot of time thinking about our design process and trying to figure out a better order for us to tackle things. Right now it feels like we're everywhere with tools and process, so here's my suggestion:
- Define the goals: Create a template for expressing what the purpose of a project is and why we're investing time and money in tackling it.
- Sketch a solution: Use tried and true paper and pencil to express ideas and share them with others at the company before going too deep on design.
- User test with Figma: Use the page linking in Figma to get a rough clickable prototype and test this with real users.
- Prototype with code: Built and HTML/CSS with dummied data to test how things feel before building a true front-end.
Wanna help me out @Ryu Duke or @Miyah Miles?

I'm onboard for sure. Sign me up to prototype anytime.

Looking good Dianna! I like the image grid on the left, but it feels like a lot to process and doesn't really show me what the product does? I think using a short looping video or something similar demo'ing the product might be better?
