@dawnpruitt I suggest getting this epic refined before starting the work on the ticket. It seems pretty blank right now and I just want to watch out for what the intention of this work is, the scope, and what our definition of done is :)

MVP: how to ship something Editor or Veteran facing faster

We are at the 1 year mark of the project. Delays are inevitable. Still: we cannot wait another year to ship something. “How small is the M in MVP?” How could we break up delivery?

BIG PICTURE DEPENDENCIES

Some options for shipping:

  1. SANDY'S DB: make the data Veteran facing

    • Create FE templates for data coming from Sandy’s DB (address, name, hours, operating status).
    • Would act like a Facility Locator detail page
    • Doesn’t inherently seem valuable

  2. Break up bigger delivery

    • Design analysis at Midpoint: Evaluate: Which portions of design are A) stable / build-ready, vs. B) Will be assessed/ affected by usability testing? For stable portions, evaluate opp to start build.
    • Could parallelize

  3. Start research earlier - already doing this

    • Option: Could we kickoff research before content is complete?
      • Focus content efforts on the content needed for specific research tasks. -- this is already done this way
      • Figure out the design for an open accordion. -- underway

NEXT STEPS:

Re: new tab issues: we'll need to test and verify after PW ships the https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/va.gov-team/issues/81506 change, theoretically in this sprint.
