Step 3: UX - Where the magic happens!

It's time to get into the nitty-gritty of user experience! This step is all about figuring out where the interaction between your Stakeholders and your project will take place.

Think about the different mediums that are available for communication, like email, a membership site, or social media. These mediums will shape the overall feel of the user experience, so choose wisely!

Get creative and consider all the different ways your Stakeholders might interact with your project. What kind of experience do you want to provide for them? What medium will best facilitate that experience?

Go over each feature you've decided to add to Version 1, and define the Where of the interactions.

At the end of this step, you'll have a clear understanding of the mediums you'll be using to bring your project to life, and you'll be one step closer to creating an unforgettable user experience!

Step 4 : How will the Interaction lead to the expected outcome

Now that we have a clear understanding of the features we want in Version 1, and the mediums we will use to deliver them to our stakeholders, it's time to bring your ideas to life and create the user experience for each of these features.

Remember, in Step 2-B we selected the most important features to include in Version 1, and in Step 3 we defined the mediums we would use to interact with each stakeholder. So, in this step, we will build upon all the previous steps and create a seamless user experience for each feature, for each stakeholder.

Think about how each stakeholder will interact with each feature through the mediums selected. What pages do you need? What forms will be used for what actions? What data will be displayed and where? What buttons will be clicked and where will they take the user?

Don't worry about technical details like custom objects or form fields at this point. Instead, focus on creating a clear and easy-to-use interface that will lead to the desired outcome for each feature and stakeholder.

Whether you prefer to do this exercise on paper or with a digital tool, the goal is to bring your ideas to life and create a user experience that will deliver the expected outcome. So, let's get creative and have some fun with it!

Congratulations! You have now accomplished the bulk of the work. With all of the planning and strategizing out of the way, it's time to dive into the nitty-gritty details. By taking the time to thoughtfully design the user experience, you have set the foundation for a successful launch and a smooth user journey. Up next, you'll get to move on to step 5, where you'll focus on deducing the objects, relationships, and fields needed to bring your vision to life. So take a deep breath, pat yourself on the back for a job well done, and get ready to take the next step in building your amazing project!

Step 5: Translating Design into Objects, Relationships, and Fields

Now that you've designed the user experience, it's time to turn your vision into reality by identifying the objects, relationships, and fields required to support your project's features.

Objects are containers for data, representing various types of information you want to store, like customers, events, or products. Relationships connect these objects to each other in meaningful ways, ensuring your data remains organized. Fields define the type of data you want to collect for each object, such as a project's name, start date, and end date.

Think of objects and relationships as the building blocks for your project's infrastructure, allowing you to efficiently store and connect data. By breaking down your design into smaller pieces and focusing on these details, you'll construct a solid foundation for your project.

So, grab a notebook and start brainstorming the objects, relationships, and fields needed to bring your user experience to life. With the groundwork laid in previous steps, the journey ahead will be smoother, and you'll be well-equipped to make your vision a reality.
