File Creation, Publishing & Saving Flow

Anonymous User

• opens editor
• new file with ugly URL is created automatically
• user can share file by sending URL to others (but no player)

Registered User

• opens editor (or clicks “New File from User Page)
• Dialogue to name file. By default, file name is pre-filled with “Untitled X” where X is number that counts upwards depending on how many previously existing untitled files there are.
• if user clicks Create or clicks outside the dialogue, file is created with “Untitled X” name. If named, File is saved with that name.
• on publish, if file is already named, Publish dialogue is pre-filled with this name, but is editable. If user edits file name, a duplicate file is saved with this. Screenshot is generated (or updated) on Publish. name.
• if you do not publish a file but just work on it, the screenshot is updated on closing the editor / opening another file.
• we now have public files (published) and all other files (private)
• only public (published) files will show when users visit other users pages

On User Page

• files can be filtered & viewed in different ways
• files shown with screenshot thumbnails
• clear distinction between published & private files
• published files can be unpublished (and vice versa) Users visiting those URLs will be redirected to the users page to see what files are still public, or if the file has been republished under another name, the user is redirected to the most recent version
• functions for later : projects (folders), ability to move, delete, rename, publish, unpublish, and ideally drag and drop
