So What's Next? Feedback to Action!
We've heard your feedback, your ideas and your requests - and we are actively spinning up workstreams to action them! Here's a sneak peak of what's on our radar:
New Features for App Developers:
We showcased a few new concepts and demonstrated how we can enhance the experience on Splunkbase to better recognize the contributions of Splunk app developers. Our primary focus is on three key areas:
- Enhanced Developer Profile Pages: We aim to provide app developers with much-improved profile pages that highlight their published apps, personal profiles, user interactions, and any certifications or badges they have earned.
- Comprehensive Feedback and Commenting System: We want to implement a robust feedback and commenting system for each app, creating a channel for communication between app developers and users.
- Developer Spotlights on Splunkbase Home Page: We plan to feature developers more prominently on our Splunkbase home page, shifting the focus from just the apps to the talented individuals behind them.
