Really, really rapid prototyping: Flash builds and user-driven innovation at JSTOR Labs

摘要

To build a platform for (high, sustainable) use, we need to know what will thrill users. Finding the right concoction of technology, functionality and design to delight users takes a thousand decisions,pivots and changes. The JSTOR Labs team has been using Flash Builds - high-intensity, short-burst, user-driven development efforts - in order to prototype new ideas and get to a user saying "Wow" in as little as a week. In this paper,a distillation of a presentation I gave at NFAIS 2015,I will describe how we have done this, highlighting the partnerships, skills, tools and content that help us innovate.
