LeoFlow: Report #3

_{Screenshot from LeoFlow's website and edited by me in Photoshop.}

LeoFlow is a Cuban production tool, made by a me, the first thing I have to say is that I am not a professional developer, even so I saw the problem we face when adding the terms of the LeoGLossary to our publications so I decided to take action and create Leoflow.

But what makes LeoFlow useful? The main utility is the time you can save, I calculated with the current version of the site, it would take you to add a term of the LeoGlossary to your publication between 12 and 15 seconds, which reduces the time dedicated to this task by more than 60%.

How does it work? It's very easy, you select and copy from your post the word to which you want to add the LeoGlossary, you open LeoFlow, paste the word in the search box, this will show you the terms that match your search, you give a click on the button of the term searched, this generates the necessary HTML code to add the link to your post and copies it to the clipboard, now you just have to go back to your publication and paste it replacing your word.

Why would you like LeoFlow?
🕐 Time saving: You can forget the time you spent searching through the different pages of LeoGLossary and creating links.

📱 Availability: being a web page, it will be available 24h and you can use it on any device that has a web browser.

💡 Easy to use: clean interface just a search box and a button you will give a click, impossible to be easier.

🎯 Thought for content creators: it is designed thinking about you and how to facilitate the creation of content.

This week the annoying power outages have made an appearance, greatly limiting the time available to dedicate to the development and improvement of LeoFlow, even so I was able to dedicate myself to correcting several errors and increasing the base of links to the terms of LeoGlossary.

Fixed issues:
A problem was solved in the LeoFlow UI that on mobile phones the box with the contact information was above the search box, which prevented searching and in some cases made it difficult. This problem was also present among those who. They use the Brave browser on desktop. After the fault was reported, the problem was solved in a short time. There are still small adjustments to be made, but these do not influence the use of LeoFlow, so I decided to dedicate the little time available to more important objectives and postpone those less important adjustments.

The script that I used to capture the links to the LeoGLossary terms was also run, as I said before I am not part of the team behind the development of LeoGlossary so I do not have access to its documentation, nor do I have information about where they are. the sources of the terms that compose it, so links may continue to be missing, so it is very important that you report each time one is missing, so that we can search for it and correct the problem.

New functions:
Functions as such were not added, but new sources of links to the LeoGlossary terms were added, here is a list of these terms:

This has resulted in 2144 links to terms that were in LeoFlow last week, now there are 2412 terms which means an increase of 268 terms. There are still many to add but I will be working on it soon.

I'm still not getting accurate statistics on LeoFlow usage, I didn't spend time this week figuring this out as I don't consider it a priority. If we take into account the limited data shown by the CPanel of the website, it has an approximate number of 482 interactions as a daily average in the last week, which if we compare it with the 361 of last week is a slight increase.

Now, as always, I leave you the table with the main LeoFLow milestones and future plans:

Provisional Roadmap

LeoFlow online and operational.
Change the Project to a single page and search all terms from it.
Improve LeoGlossary terms search algorithm.
Improve link capture script and add terms not included.
Creation of a backup server in another domain.
Implementation of improvements in the UI of the web page
Update the tutorials.
Add the different terms that are missing
Obtaining statistics
Automate link capture in real time
Automate data entry to the LeoFlow database in real time	Add themes to the application	Migrate Leoflow to a paid host, where it would be more secure and stable.

This week I could not do everything I wanted, the main obstacle was the lack of electricity and therefore the internet, even so I was able to meet some of the objectives for this week, my commitment towards the development of this tool has not decreased, I will continue trying improve it.

Your #feedback is very important as it helps me correct problems that I would not see with the naked eye; only with the use of LeoFlow can they be detected.

I am very grateful to everyone who has supported me in one way or another, whether with positive comments, feedback or sharing LeoFLow publications.
