Why I Decided to Create a Photo Organizer and What I Learned as a Result

Too Long; Didn't Read

The author describes their journey of creating a product line, which began with the idea of developing a single product, the FVA Tool Set, and ended with the creation of a set of high-level product documentation, a detailed understanding of the product from the user's perspective, and product requirements. The author mentions that they started with coding but later realized that it would have been better to start with Design Thinking, a process that consists of seven stages for creating a product. The author also established a set of documentation artifacts to maintain high-level product knowledge, such as Value Propositions, Business Model Canvas, Product Vision Board, and Competitive Analysis Matrix. Additionally, the author focused on the product from the user's perspective and created a Persona, a User Journey, and User Scenarios to demonstrate the product's value. Finally, the author identified stakeholders, created a table with their roles, concerns, and views, and designed a questionnaire to clarify user needs.
