The Requirement

As Julia Hub aims to expand its user base a key business challenge is to create a platform that not only attracts new users but also ensures that they seamlessly integrate into the Julia Hub ecosystem and it’s various applications built for various use cases.

Our Approach

The aim is to promote not only first-party apps but also applications created by users and third-party developers. This approach aligns with the concept of an app store, fostering a comprehensive ecosystem within their cloud platform.

For tech-savvy and non-tech savvy users

This design caters to both tech-savvy and non-tech-savvy users. The primary user personas include software engineers for application development, data scientists for analysing and storing large datasets, and Teachers, students, & general users interested in learning and sharing Julia programming code through notebooks and projects. Most of the user base is highly educated and in the age range of 20-60.

Pain points addressed

The platform faced dual challenges, each with its unique complexities. Firstly, there were concerns among students and teachers regarding the sharing of notebooks (web applications running code on the cloud). To address this, we revamped the notebooks page, enhancing the discoverability of related notebooks.

Designing a clear structure

Additionally, we introduced a featured notebook section for administrators to spotlight to all users. The previous design lacked a clear structure when multiple notebooks were involved, prompting us to implement a comprehensive directory system for notebook management

Refining the information architecture

We initiated the process by overhauling the navigation system and refining the Information Architecture (IA). Analysing the existing IA, we outlined potential features for inclusion in the redesign. Subsequently, we delved into ideation for the implementation of a dedicated projects section, complete with a shared code repository.

Building together with the stakeholders

We presented various options to stakeholders, finalised a set of features, and commenced the design phase. Throughout, our emphasis remained on creating responsive designs for all web screens. Following an initial feedback round with stakeholders, we engaged in discussions with developers to initiate the implementation phase.

The outcome

Our passion and expertise in UX/UI enable us to provide clients with crucial business and product interventions. We go the extra mile with discoveries to ensure clients have a robust experience working with Twist Open UX. Our dedication ensures the creation of genuinely well-made products.

Consolidation of software

They used different software for the analysis and report generation on one drug. We had to consolidate the tasks and create workflows to ensure that they were ordered in the same flow - cleaning up raw data, running data analysis to generate tables and plots, and producing the final report.
