A few days ago, I posted a Great Big Idea for an SMT that was basically thinking out loud. I got some good feedback, and it was a big idea with too many moving parts and in the end, a use case that didn't really fit.

No Matter, Here I present Great Big Idea Number 2.

A Detailed STEEM onboarding App that works like a game with a guided walk through.

If you have ever downloaded a game on your phone or tablet, and started playing it, you would have come across the game walk through. Over the early levels of the game, It guides you to suggested actions to get started. Build your base, level it up, build a farm, build a mine, build a quarry etc, etc.

I think one of the excellent front end dev's - perhaps with the help of a gave dev or app creator, should build such a walk through for STEEM. This Dapp would need delegated SP to start new Steemians off, and for account creation purposes. Once the account is created, it could walk a newcomer through all the steps and educate them in all of the entry level intricacies of STEEM.

• Signup process.
• Ad a profile pic and introduction.
• Open your wallet.
• Pop ups and hovering info block about different wallet functions - STEEM, SP, SBD delegate etc.
• Go look at some posts.
• Guide to create an "Introduce yourself post"
• Guide to posting it.
• pop ups/notifications when the first votes, comments etc with a link to respond.
• Links to major communities for to help newcomers.
• Links and info about some of the major Dapps where new users can start out - @dlike, @steemhunt, @dtube etc.
• Once a new user is comfortable and has started progressing, links to the main front-ends.

It would be preferable if this service was neutral, and not affiliated with one of the major front-ends. Presenting all the options instead of just funnelling to one specific front end.

The benefits to the STEEM eco-system would be huge if a simple APP download for Android or ios was available.

Walking a newcomer through all the major features of this complex eco-system in a simple, step by step, guided process would - In my opinion - massively boost user retention.

Now I have no idea how to do any of this, or any skills or funds to make any of this happen. I Just present it as an idea or suggestion for some clever App dev to run with.

What do you all think, I personally would love to have a simple App to point friends and family to that would walk them through the start up phase of joining STEEM. Something that "de-mystifies" alot of the process and aimed at the mass market and not necessarily requiring prior "Cryptocoin" knowledge.

Please let me know what you all think, and if there is any one out there that could pick this up and run with it, go for it.

I look forward to everyones input.

Regards,

@jk6276 - John.
