Update the Sites on the Use of Roam
Considering the scope of Roam usage
It's extremely flexible and powerful, but perhaps not the most visual or intuitive.
It focusses on speed of entry via the keyboard only, with a lot of essential functions hidden.

Onboarding and Gamification Reflection
The design of a sequence of activities for onboarding reminds me of how games lead players through a sequence of tiny steps, introducing game mechanics and a narrative.
Andy Goodman/Question Is the narrative distracting, confusing?
Andy Goodman/Question How might this be improved?
Structure Reflection
I created and deleted a lot of preparatory structure that was overcomplicating the process of onboarding.
Consider the aims:
Facilitate onboarding. FACILE: make it easy. Keep it simple!
Follow the PDSA Cycle. Act
I didn't initially! I got lost in detail, thinking about affordances for the future.
I didn't adhere to aims, and ended up deleting superfluous structure.
