Today I want to make my first #ASKPOB publication, this type of publication is to ask the POB community. In my opportunity, apart from asking in turn, I will make a suggestion to @proofofbrain for its new front-end. Because this post is important for me and the community because through the comments we will know the needs and requirements of active users and other users who we want to be active and have proofofbrain.io as their default page that the entire community has from here without leaving the front-end.
Before entering my central theme I want to share with you some important steps when designing any product, be it a page, service or product.
1. Research the Market.
Before creating any product we must know the market to whom our product is directed. Where we must carry out a study or analysis of the context, where this will benefit our making a difference.
2. Identify market needs
We will have this step to carry out a survey and know the reality of the user's needs, this can be done through a survey. If you want your product to meet the needs of people, this point should be considered one of the most important, to meet the needs and your product is a success.
3. Identify the Competition
This point must be monitored and closely known to the competition, which is the key to its success, apart from knowing what the customer's complaints are. NOT to COPY it because it is a bad streak to create a product identical to those of others, if not you must closely monitor to know the key to success and improve it, transform it something better, by knowing the complaints of customers you will be able to cover the needs that the product of the competences lacks.
These three points I touch on in my post because even the proofofbrain.io platform has the same version of Hive, a very simple frot-end, they want to change it. To take these steps we must use these three points very closely to create a product that is a success, although I know that creators may have knowledge, if not in this way I want a contribution to the platform to its creators.
My suggestions
- Main Front-end
It should be striking, where the newly created posts are reflected, mostly when we open an interface it directs us to the most popular post trends, but where is the newly created one? Sometimes it is even forgotten. Apart from being the trend posts reflected on the main page, it should be the latest recently published.
Text Editor
This is an important part that the text editor has several tools to help the writer. It is very difficult to record yourself or to be placing code so that your text can be bold, italic, centered, left, until you can place the image and its font. One of the editors that I liked being a fork of steemit is Serey.io this is a Cambodian platform where it focuses on its users that many people own smartphones I seek the comfort of its users here an image of its editor :
If we look at this editor, it has a Word feature, which gives the user a convenience to choose how they want their post to look, without coding. For me this is important because it gives the user comfort, a good presentation of the post.
Notifications
A notification bell is a very good feature, because that way it will be active when a person comments on you, started following you, mentions you, votes you without the need to go to Peakd or Hive. I would like you to take it into account.
Coin purse
Where you can observe, claim and even delegate your chips not only that of POB, but that of Hive the second layer of Hive without the need to leave the platform.
For today these are my suggestions, for the Front-end. This post will take 100% @ pob-fund to 100% beneficiary. Let's grow together with this platform
