✨ Contribution Opportunity: Application UX Research

[smartcontracts]

What is a Contribution Opportunity?

A Contribution Opportunity is a concrete task that you can work on to contribute to the Optimism Collective.

---

Summary

The OP Mainnet ecosystem is home to many different applications. You can find many of these applications on the Optimism Ecosystem page.

The UX of an application on OP Mainnet reflects on OP Mainnet as a whole. It is highly valuable for application developers to get actionable feedback on the experience of using their applications.

The ideal outcome of this Contribution Opportunity is a detailed document that reviews the following key UX points for some of the applications deployed to OP Mainnet:

• Wallet connection experience
• UI responsiveness to user interactions
• Loading times
• Fast responsiveness to transactions
• UI bugs or glitches in the UI display
• Simplicity of understanding and using the core product
• Navigation and layout issues
• General sense of polish and trustworthiness instilled by the application

Potential Features

• Detailed document describing your experience with various apps
• Focus on the above key UX points
• Screenshots or recordings when encountering issues
• Subjective reviews of different features

Impact

• Applications are the heart of OP Mainnet and a good app UX may influence people to use other OP Mainnet apps
• Helps application developers better serve their target audience

Hey everyone, getting back into these issues now that Bedrock is done! Going to forward these to the relevant parties :-)

@squirt11e the Hop team really appreciated your UX review!!

@Ayaz1997 I forwarded this over to the Velodrome team! Apparently their V2 is launching tomorrow which will come with a new UI. Would you want to review that new UI too?

[Ayaz1997]

@smartcontracts yes sure I would like to do that too.

I am a UX designer and I did a UX audit for Lyra here on notion [(https://www.notion.so/Lyra-UX-Audit-a634525d210544a9b26d5ce299ca1a09?pvs=4])

[originalspring]

I did UX Audit for Synthetix here. I will add more once I get the reward from the staking. [https://mirror.xyz/0x85Ff6b55Eb2cE82d9d8EF357c21dC3b316553af3/F0InN7VZr0mWMOKHThuulNMVuXLXAap9ymk_pipd2g8]

The info arrangement is not perfect due to the usability issue of Mirror.
