Help Wanted: Create animated GIFs for mobile app workflows

cwarnermm commented 1 year ago

Context

Visuals and short, animated GIFs can help teach visual learners how to perform tasks using the Mattermost mobile app. Example of a docs page with visuals

Docs request

Review all end user product documentation for tasks, features, and outcomes where functionality is missing a visual "show me" element (screenshot or animated GIF). Example of a docs page with both desktop/web and mobile visual gaps.
Capture a short animated GIF or a static image of each end user workflow to add inline on the docs page.

How you can help

Use the latest Mattermost mobile app and the standard Mattermost Denim theme to capture all workflows.
Avoid drawing lines, arrows, boxes, or call outs on images.
Don't forget to include ALT Text descriptions for all new image assets.
Use existing docs pages with images as a starting point for code guidance. The Docs team can help provide RST syntax support for publication.
Save static image files in PNG format within the /images directory in the docs repository.
Create a docs PR that adds the visuals to the product documentation.

@cwarnermm I believe it would be better if we raise PRs with the new visuals on a per-page basis. I would like to start with the page that you mentioned in the issue itself.

@Rutam21 - Excellent approach! I'm very open to splitting out the work needed here into individual issues & PRs. Are you open to creating a new issue specific to the page you'd like to start with?

Rutam21 commented 1 month ago

Yeah, sure @cwarnermm . I will create a separate issue for that and tag this as the parent issue.
