NUX Refresh, Again

Bluxome Labs : 5/16-5/16)

The NUX for the people doing work on the CrowdFlower platform has been around for two years.

Time for a refresh! Given the following from Design

… I set about improving the NUX.

First, I could see the difference in the pre- and post- and decided to remove the dependency on Guiders, a lib that has long served CrowdFlower well. Then, given the design, I saw we could realize the implementation quickly with a Twitter Bootstrap Modal. Going a step further, I also realized it would be the perfect opportunity to introduce React (and even React-Bootstrap) on a small scale in a Rails app where it did not yet exist.

After several copy changes, this was the final Deliverable

(specs were not unfortunately not created in conjunction with the delivered product given the scope they would have added to the original ticket.)

Results

  • Deprecated legacy 3rd party JS lib usage (Guiders) in favor of re-imagined NUX with React component.
