Comment to 'Opinionated vs Customisable '
  • Yes it might be ideal for the end user, but would not that be a big workload for developers?
    Because in this case he could turn against the end user who will have to wait much longer before having something solid.
    You mean three different solutions? Or three solutions in one with three modes "beginner", "advanced", "expert"?
    With three distinct solutions, are not you going to put the user in front of a difficult choice to make, since he does not know?
    Me it seems to me that I would rather be on the side of Alex, moreover, whatever you do, there will always be people who will not be satisfied, many get lost by trying to please everyone. What you really want is something solid, if you miss some options, it's secondary.

    • Baloo - I'm thinking more with a marketing/operations head than development. Essential UNA is a single platform, capable of delivering a huge range of potential solutions - there are way too many choices for novice users, so we can create pre-defined or opinionated solutions to get people started quickly, or as you said 'three solutions in one with three modes "beginner", "advanced", "expert" -  hopefully over time people can progress from beginner to expert, but of course some people aren't interested in becoming 'UNA experts' - they just want something that works, and is quick and easy to set up ie. the 'Squarespace customer' - We are working on a solution to fill this gap - watch this space ;)

      • Yes, I will follow it, even if I do not find the option to do it, it is an interesting question :-)
