What is it about the Explore page that makes devs want to use it over the docs?

Open dezzie opened this issue 11 years ago • 0 comments

We received feedback that devs were frustrated with the lack of context around HMDA data that for those who checked out the HMDA website, they found the Explore page to be more helpful than the Field Reference or Console sections of the docs.

We know that:

  • Explore has the most plain language of all places that describe information in LAR
  • Field Reference is not the best-looking table. It has plain language definitions, but not plain language field names
  • Explore has a preview data feature with plain language

Proposed fixes:

  • [ ] Get more detailed feedback from devs, having them construct queries in both places
  • [ ] Add plain language names to Field Reference table. Should be consistent with Explore
  • [x] Some way to let people preview from the docs…
