SOURCE EVIDENCE
Read original GitHub Issue ↗Start with what users actually said
Read the complete discussion before interpreting the problem. Note repeated use cases, workarounds, constraints and the people asking for the change.
Interview five affected users
- When did you last need this?
- What outcome were you trying to reach?
- What did you use instead?
- How often does this occur?
- What commitment would prove it matters?
Run the smallest experiment
Deliver the outcome manually or with a narrow prototype before building a reusable feature.
A user completes the real workflow and commits time, data, distribution or budget to repeat it.Make a build decision
- Build: repeated pain and active commitment
- Narrow: pain is real but the audience or job differs
- Stop: weak frequency or no behavioral proof
