I really like where this prototype for @WooCommerce variations is heading! Here's a 5 mins walkthrough of how it works, with a question for you at the end about global/local attributes. Let me know your thoughts, try the prototype yourself, give feedback via the form. Appreciate it! #radicalspeedmonth

Hi! I'm @Janahabanana , product designer on WooCommerce. Working on the Order detail page right now and want to hear from the people who actually use it. What are the top 3 things you'd change about it? Reply below, or drop it in the form: forms.gle/AfJSHqGzmayAnk…

You might have heard of Radical Speed Month at @automattic? It's a new experiment, similar to a hackathon, where we team up in pairs and work closely together on something that we want to ship by the end of the month. I took this as an opportunity to work on two things that I feel are very important. (Starting now that I'm back from #CheckoutSummit!) First thing is the way that users create and manage variations in @WooCommerce. For this project I've teamed up with Poli, one of our very talented designers. Very excited with where it's going. For years, the variation experience within WooCommerce has been far from ideal. As a user, you have to click between multiple tabs, reload the page, deal with attributes, generate variations in batches of 50. Once those variations are created, you still have the hassle of multi-page navigation, depending on how many variations you have. Really just an experience that's very much lacking. Our project aims to massively simplify this process without affecting the underlying data, so anyone can use the new process with the variations they already have. The goal is to bring it all into one tab, the variations tab, and make the creation and editing experience much more streamlined, with far fewer clicks to actually create and manage variations. Conceptual design exploration attached. Additionally, I'm working with @PanosSynetos on a second project for our Product Add-Ons plugin, with the goal to dramatically improve the ratings of that plugin in the marketplace. Some of the ways we plan to do this are by looking at long-standing feature requests like conditional logic, as well as the reviews that have come in, general performance, and quality of life improvements. It's going to be a huge challenge to improve the ratings score, as we'll need a lot of five-star ratings to make this happen. But, we should be able to see the positive effect almost immediately once we've figured out the issues with the plugin. Of course, I love building in public, so I'll be sharing as much as I can about this project, about these projects, as we go through them. As always, I'll be looking for feedback, good or bad, to ensure we're building what you as a user actually want. Very excited by this way of working! 🚀 #radicalspeedmonth
