User Experience

We built this because we are passionate about UX and wanted to start helping people reconsider their site's usability, in a programmatic manner. While there seem to be tools to test site performance, we didn't find many that focussed on UX and design.

Of course great design is subjective, but there is such an overwhelming amount of UX guidance out there, and we wanted to distil some of it into an accessible and simple tool. We drew many of our insights from this great resource: http://goodui.org/. In fact, because this is an open-source project, I'm happy to share our background research into usability (Google Doc for now, but will convert to a better format soon): http://bit.ly/pagegauge-research

We also built this because we wanted to learn how to run a remote hackathon. We are a distributed team and are learning how to be effective and retain as many of the benefits of being co-located as possible. We did it over the course of the day with 5 people, and have written up our learnings and advice for other teams trying the same thing here:https://medium.com/@_pulkitagraw...

We intend on improving this over time and hopefully with help from others, so please do share your suggestions or ideas!
