Marketplace UX Weekly Design Review

When: TBA
Where: TBA
What:
The Marketplace UX team has a weekly design review where we review, discuss and get feedback on the work that's happening. Are you working on the Marketplace project and have something you want to share? Do you want to be more involved in the design process of the Marketplace? Just want to see what's happening this week on the Marketplace UX team? This is the place for all of that! The agenda for the projects being discussed each week are up at: https://marketplaceux.etherpad.mozilla.org/11

A note about feedback: The purpose of this meeting is for people working on design projects for the Marketplace to be able to safely present their work in-progress and get constructive feedback to help them move the work along. If you have the time, please read this very excellent, and short, article about giving good design feedback. If you only have time for the highlights, please keep these points in mind while giving feedback:

  • Know what is currently up for feedback. If you're not sure, ask.
  • Make sure your feedback relates to the overall goals of the project and the users.
  • Make your feedback about the design's solution to the stated problem, not whether you "like it" or not.
  • Questions are good, ask away!
  • Don't be afraid to be negative, don't beat around the bush, but be professional about it.
  • Be prepared for the designer to defend her work (aka explain the choices she made.) This is part of the process, and where asking more questions come in handy.
  • Please, please, please don't come to the table with a design to present as an "alternative" to work that is being presented unless you've talked with the designer working on a project first. This is not a competition and "counter-designing" is not nearly as helpful as working with the designer who is also working on the same problem you want to try to solve.

Marketplace Developer (aka Devhub) Redesign

This project is being lead by: Bram Pitoyo

Project description

The Marketplace Developers pages are seriously out of date. The app submission flow and app management pages have had a lot of incremental work performed on themt in the last 12 months, but now we need to go in and clean up. We will be redesigning all of the existing features to create a more cohesive flow for developers, bring the existing developer pages in-line with the visual style updates made to the Marketplace consumer pages in Q3 2013, and address issues and concerns that have come out of useability testing and user feedback.
