01 · Developer Experience

Write the problem hypothesis

For [developer], completing [setup or development task] is unclear at [step], causing [abandonment or rework].

You can name one user, one situation and one measurable consequence without proposing a feature.
02 · EVIDENCE INTERVIEW

Interview five affected users

  • Screen-share the task without guidance.
  • Where do you first hesitate?
  • What did you search for?
  • Which error or concept is unclear?
  • What workaround finally unblocked you?
At least three people independently describe the same painful workflow with recent examples.
03 · MINIMUM TEST

Run the smallest experiment

Create the smallest example, diagnostic or setup assistant and observe three developers using it unprompted.

Three developers finish the task with fewer interventions or measurably less time.
04 · DECISION GATE

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
Do not let GitHub engagement replace direct validation.
