The road
Process
Seven checkpoints. The homepage drives a camera along them. This page is the same road, written down.
01
Discover
What the business is trying to change, who uses it, and what “done” means for the first release.
02
Plan
Scope, sequence, and the things that are intentionally not in version one.
03
Design
Flows and a visual system. The main task is designed before the decoration.
04
Develop
Build in the open: a working slice early, then the rest of the agreed scope.
05
Test
The real path — phone, desktop, empty states, bad input, and the handover.
06
Launch
Domain, HTTPS, mail, database, and a calm release. Then watch the first real use.
07
Support
Fixes, small changes, and a person who still knows how the system is put together.
