Proust's questionnaire

I saw Proust’s questionnaire on James' Blog and I thought I should try it out.

Designing for inactive users: Account check-ins and deletion

Artemis has been open for registration with an invite code for over a year. In that time, many people have signed up. With that said, not everyone who signs up will end up using their account. This is par for the course with software. Signing up for an account doesn’t mean s...

Redesigning the Artemis account deletion back-end

As I have been building Artemis, I have learned that the account deletion flow requires constant review. For example, whenever I add a new database table, I need to make sure that table is in the account deletion flow. I may also need to create an index in the database so I ...
