Who is Orion's target user?
- CSS users are very important. Many developers spending a lot of time doing CSS development and are not well served by existing tools.
- Have a need for immediate feedback - tight edit/refresh cycle
- Embed Orion in the site being built to allow in-situ development (mod_orion)
- Server needs to be very easy to install
- Use server locally for offline support
What do small web developers use today?
- TextMate/Notepad
- JQuery/PHP
- Browser developer tools / Firebug
- Various lint tools
Developers of Giant Apps
- Need to be able to work on the site back end functionality as well as web front end
- Develop/debug cycle flows through client and server code
- HAML/SASS/LESS for build-time
- Compression/Closure
- JS Debuggers
Typical workflows:
- Edit/Test/Run/Debug (no build/compression)
- Package/deploy/Debug again (debugging deployed, packaged app)
- Wireframe/Mockup/Design
- Documentation at all stages
- Collaboration between designers and developers
- Mockingbird
- Balsamiq
- Declarative programming with code generation:
- Mainly HTML generation
Mobile Developers
- Categories of mobile development:
- Native app developers
- Developers bringing traditional web sites/apps to mobile
- Web to native - PhoneGap
- Integrate device emulation tools, build/deploy tools
- Deploying to Heroku/Azure
- Dealing with different form factors (variety of display sizes for Android/iOS apps)
Cloud Developers
- Packaging/deploying to various cloud back ends
API Tools
- Documenting
- API Compliance
- API versioning/evolution
- Tooling driven by API - code completion based on API definition
- Both JavaScript and web service APIs
End users of apps built with Orion
- Bug reporting/feedback
- UserVoice
- Collecting usage data
- Integrate with existing tools
Adopters
- Building tools on top of Orion
- Embedding parts of Orion in their own applications
- Integration via linking (inbound or outbound)
What will Orion initially focus on?
- Naturally going to target giant apps via self-hosting
- Smaller site developers typically have lower tooling expectations so most likely initial audience
- Identify high value integrations that will offer the biggest initial benefit for various groups
