The Design Process

Design Goals

Since this experience was a test, a light development overhead was necessary

Understanding the project requirements, I decided the mobile and desktop experience to largely share their UI for two reasons:
    First, a user would likely come to Grove via a Facebook or Google ad on their phone during transit or out and about. If the user didn't finish their onboarding experience they could choose to go home and finish either on their desktop computer or mobile device, helping them with not having to learn two interfaces.
    In addition, sharing the mobile and desktop UI design would directly impact development time and also benefit load times since assets and components would be shared.

Ultimately, I wanted to create a dynamic, contextual interface giving the user manageable bites of information when needed, not all at once. Through research, it was clear that too much information at once is overwhelming and can result in users leaving the onboarding flow prematurely.
