Our fire-fighting situations became less worrisome because of Hansel. Kudos to super responsive Hansel team!
Couple of questions:
1) Could you walk us through a counter-intuitive product decision you've taken while building Hansel? How that paid off?
2) What's on the roadmap next?
@abhilashi Thanks for the endorsement :)
1. Well, quite a few. But one interesting event was more a product UX decision - When we started out, one of our hypothesis was that developers are discoverers and exploratory in nature and would relish open platforms. Counter-intuitive to us, we hit some usability roadblocks very soon. It's only when we started boxing use cases up, which was a drastic UX change, did we see a big jump in usage.
2. Well, in the near term, it is support to more platforms - iOS, and gaming platforms!
So just to make sure I understood this right, the system taps in to the code so that you can make changes/fixes and it would reflect instantaneously without having to resubmit a new version to the app store and wait for approval?
@cemedericarak Yes you got it right. You can't push in new features as you can't create new classes and functions, however you can hotfix any existing function. We can have an elaborate discussion if you like. I am available at mudit@hansel.io
@muditkmathur@hansel Sounds good! I can hit you up from there. My worry is with Apple. They like control so they might oppose themselves to this. Lets hope not.
@cemedericarak@hansel We have got you covered on this. For Apple (iOS) it works the way React Native works, where Javascript is fetched from the URLs at runtime and executed over WebKit. Please do check our compliance section of FAQs, where we have tried to answer more questions on compliance. You would also find the exact guidelines of the appstores, along with one of these answers, which will further clear the air. http://help.hansel.io/hc/en-us/s...
