General Update

[hurradieweltgehtunter]

I want to address the more than outdated contents of the first run wizard.

Problems

• Desktop app button links to server download page on oc.com
• Calendar & Contacts app are mentioed but lead to an empty docs page
• Still using the old slogan
• not responsive

In total it does not really provide any useful tips for users and gives a bad first impression.

Solution

Since the Firstrun-Wizard is the first thing a user sees and it's visible by default on every ownCloud installation we could reach a lot of people with this. Some first ideas of content:

• Desktp + Mobile Clients + useful links: Update and include more useful links to get started with ownCloud

• Blog stream: Include latest blog posts from oc.com

• Social media stream: Include latest social media posts and include follow buttons

• Promote products: e.g. ownCloud.online is a low barrier product and could address users

• ask for details to finish the setup of the ownCloud (Name, E-Mail-Address, invite a colleague; see section setup wizard)

• ...

Design

While the current design is a static, one-view popup it could be switched to a multi-step view. Each page could handle a topic and present contents, guide the user through the first steps etc.

Setup wizard

Initial settings can be set here. For example:

User

• Name
• Email address
• Avatar
• Notification settings
• Activity Settings
• Language

Admin

• Imprint URL
• Privacy Policy URL
• Apps (include marketplace offerings)
• Email server settings
