Create a product tour for new users #242

Open samajammin opened 4 years ago

samajammin commented 4 years ago

Summary

Although we're revamping the template READMEs (#234 #241 #246), we should consider better ways to introduce the IDE to new users by creating some sort of product tour.

Potential libraries

This product tour could pop as a series of modals (using a cookie or local storage?) that the user has the option to follow through or dismiss.

Motivation

One of the main pieces of feedback we received is that Studio is a complex product that is challenging to quickly understand how to use it. Our data supports this: only ~50% of visitors start a project & only ~20% of projects created end up deploying a contract.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

I welcome ideas & discussion on this! Lots of different approaches we could take.

I think we spoke about this a few times in the past. I know a few people who create these sorts of things, so can ask for feedback, and again, tie it in to an updated video.

The onboarding tooltips part in the tool should be fairly straight forward to implement. Possibly we could simply use some OS library to do it but a quick research and test should give us the answer if any of this libraries is suitable for the task.
