User Experience (UX) is community-oriented and available for different audiences on several websites.  This wiki serves as an informational source for UX-related activities (workstreams) that goes across multiple OpenStack projects.

===Getting Started with Designing for User Experience===
+
== OpenStack User Experience Mission==
 +
The mission of the UX Program is to support and facilitate cross-project efforts to improve the overall user experience of OpenStack.
 +
We provide user research to help teams identify any issues preventing adoption of their services as well as help the projects validate design and development efforts to address those issues. In addition, we help the project teams create solutions to address customer needs and pain points. Finally, we will provide the OpenStack community with visibility into any user experience issues related to inconsistency across projects.

<b>How do I get involved with OpenStack UX and work on blueprints?</b><br/>
+
== OpenStack UX Guidelines ==
We track the work that we are doing on our launchpad site[https://launchpad.net/openstack-ux]. If you aren't ready to contribute your own designs, start off by giving others feedback on launchpad or on AskOpenStack UX[http://ask-openstackux.rhcloud.com/questions/].

<b>What's a blueprint in Launchpad?</b><br/>
+
 
It's a specification for a feature in OpenStack. In UX, this usually is presented as wireframes or prototypes, but it can be something else. There's lots more info on openstack.org[https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Blueprints].

<b>What is the process for getting a new design into Horizon?</b><br/>
+
 
Assign yourself a blueprint and get to work! When you have something, post a link to your design docs on AskOpenStack UX[http://ask-openstackux.rhcloud.com/questions/] and ask for feedback. There'll be the usual revisions. Designs that are ready to go can be added to a new or existing blueprint on the Horizon project site[https://launchpad.net/horizon]. Then, wait for a dev to implement your design. You will be expected to work with developers to answer questions or make updates to your design along the way.

<b>That's a pretty vague process. Can't you give me a little more detail than that?</b><br/>

Nope, not yet. We're new to this so the process is pretty ad hoc. We'd love your help making it better! Make suggestions.

NOTE: This page is no longer maintained. If you are interested in UX design and improvements, we would love for you to revive this group! Please send an email to the openstack-discuss mailing list to get started!



Overview of research activities on behalf of the OpenStack community

If nothing else, then review this deck

OpenStack User Experience Mission

The mission of the UX Program is to support and facilitate cross-project efforts to improve the overall user experience of OpenStack. We provide user research to help teams identify any issues preventing adoption of their services as well as help the projects validate design and development efforts to address those issues. In addition, we help the project teams create solutions to address customer needs and pain points. Finally, we will provide the OpenStack community with visibility into any user experience issues related to inconsistency across projects.
