Let us introduce a brand new way of developing web apps.
If you are struggling with repetitive tasks there is a method to improve your and your team's productivity.
One step to improve team workflow and collaboration
1. Building web apps
is about team
collaboration
How to improve workflow with something
different than another task manager?
2. Using task management and team communication
tools has an extreme positive effect on your work,
right?
3. That's because
team collaboration is essential
when working on web apps
you get conctructive feedback,
you are better together at problem solving,
you learn from each other.
4. As a web dev you're probably struggling
with something else, especielly when
running tests manually
.

5. Let's assume your task for today
is to create a signup page
for a web app
6. How do you start?
From scratch. With an empty layout, of course.
7. name, email, password, password repeat,
maybe some data about the user,
most probably some checkbox for the Newsletter.
You need to add all the
interactive inputs one by one:
And you can add
the "SUBMIT" button.

8. Now, be little creative, do some styling tweaks.
Front-end page
is ready now!
10. And what you have to do after every change batch?
Yeah. You need to test the form
(just to make sure that everyting's working well).
11. So most of your work is filling.
Filling the form.
12. With each and every change you need to
fill all the necessary fields - just to test what you've created.
And once you're done?
You're starting all over, with filling the form, of course.
14. How many times you've been filling this thing?
...it's just the begining
10?
20?
more?
15. Your piece of code is tested by others
(QAs, other developers on an instance stage of the app)
If everyting's fine it goes to the production stage -
and you have to verify it once again...
16. ...and this page is just the entry
point for your web app
You, your teammates, testers, product manager, company founder
- will have to fill the form many times just to check how it's working
