That means don't tell them how to use it. Just watch them use it and ask them about it afterwards. Look up "hall way testing". Be ready to make changes long into development and after deployment. | |

| May 6, 2018 at 23:39 | comment | added | rt_ | Ah this is just what I was looking for, I think tags is the way to go as well. I really like the idea of scanning the description for tags to suggest. And yes I'll definitely get researching on how to train to user to effectively tag. Also re synonyms: One of the many good things about algolia is that the system handles typos and synonyms when searching. If you have any more techniques in mind that could help, please let me know. Thanks! | |
