Prototypes & Research Cycles
We discovered that the emphasis on individual communities was far too confusing and thus had to reconsider the information architecture and navigation schema in a different way.
Prototype Iterations
We were presented with a unique challenge: grouping Jupyter’s offerings in a way that is easily digestible by first-time visitors while still showing a hierarchy between the communities and their offerings. We consulted an engineer from Project Jupyter who was able to break down these tools into higher level sub-groups: kernels, servers, and front end applications. This would later help new users conceptualize Jupyter’s technologies. Additionally, we created a distinction between the core communities and tools with 3rd party communities and tools, pointing to the greater Jupyter ecosystem.
