We were looking for external input on how to design a developer portal well. DX Heroes helped us improve the overall onboarding experience from start to finish with focus on product usability.

Challenge

Initially, the challenge was to focus on the target persona and to effectively communicate the ins and outs of TapiX. Later on, we were challenged by the amount of technical writing needed to fully explain different use cases while still meeting the client's expectations concerning budget and quality.

At the beginning, we identified the key target user personas the portal would be built for—a technical product manager and a developer. Afterwards, we analyzed the way TapiX works and then determined the role and value of every single API endpoint, which later proved very useful during the tech writing stage. On top of that, our UX team designed a custom bottom-up user interface, including an interactive sandbox.
