ViVi just finished a quick tutorial on how to make working prototype, the example inside may be too simple to advanced users but really useful to beginners. So, if you are new user of ForeUI and want to create interactive mockups, please don’t miss this totorial.
It has been mentioned several times that we need to provide the help document, yet we have such a long TODO list at this time, and there are many important features to be implement, so we can only allocate very limited bandwidth for documentation at this phase. My friends, before we publish the help document, you can ask for support in our support forum, we will response very quickly (yet please consider the timezone, we are in GMT+8 :D)
In our schedule, the next version of ForeUI (V1.50) will be released on 21st, August. Again there will be many interesting updates, I think I can disclose something today;)
One interesting new feature is to allow creating your own element library (requested by Ari), that will ease the management of customized element. We also have a plan to allow sharing libraries via internet.
The Bug_0079 reported by Ulrich Böttger will be fixed, also we will fix another similar bug on Text Edit Box.
There will be many other updates, but I can not disclose here. I don’t like to keep you guessing, but those things are not confirmed yet, so let’s wait and see :).
A~ha~ It seems like my first post without any figure…
My friends, the frustration of the 99% users that don’t have a help document is much more important than of those 1% that are asking for a feature. That person or two asking for a feature can wait many, many months for it. In the end is not their product, but it’s yours and it’s you that have to decide if a feature gets in or not.
The competitors will have a greater advantage over your product if their product is easy to use and understand, and this includes integrated help.
My 2 cents! 🙂
After having spent some time with ForeUI and interacting a bit with the team I have to say that while the help file is important it might be good to just build on the new tutorial and add content to that – this is not that difficult of a product to master.
I look forward to the updates coming on the 21st and I will certainly take a look at all the new changes.
Good Job!
In reality, customers (and business cases) determine features. If users are demanding more or better features, the company should accommodate them. There will soon be a point where the roll out of new features can wait and supporting material like tutorials, help and a user manual can be written.
Right now, ForeUI is a Balsamiq-killer. With a few bug fixes and new features, it will bury Balsamiq and become even more useful.
Good work!
Thanks all your suggestions, my friends. We will seriously consider increasing the bandwidth for documentation, maybe in V1.50, there will be a basic help document online 😀
