Hey #rstats #opensource world!
In the context of a research I'm developping an R package and I would like to run a beta-test of a package before creating a v1 of the package to make sure it fits to the target user base.

Do you know any good resource to collect feedback from users? Or general frameworks?

@LeNematode at some point you will have to sit with some of your users and observe their workflow—it’s really good at finding stumbling blocks hidden to you.

One tool that can help is a friction log. It records the narrative of a task and the feelings behind each step. Specific tasks are better than generalized.

Thanks for the suggestion! I haven't heard before about friction logs, so great discovery!
