A dashboard just for me
To decide what to improve I need to see how Nada Menos is used. An internal panel with usage, funnel and health, open to a few accounts, and handing no data to third parties.
A month ago I told how I learned to measure without spying. What was missing was what makes that measurement useful: being able to see it. I built an internal panel that shows how many people use Nada Menos, where they progress until they build a cart, where they stop, and whether the system is healthy. It updates on its own every day, and only a few accounts I choose can open it; for anyone else the address doesn’t even exist.
Something that mattered to me: knowing where people come from without handing data to anyone. I don’t use third-party tools. What gets measured comes from our own pipeline, and it doesn’t store who the person is.
In parallel I did a cleanup that nobody sees but that you can feel. The project’s documents now have an index, and the finished ones moved to a historical archive. Dependencies are pinned to exact versions, so a build today is the same as tomorrow’s. A type check walks through the code and doesn’t let errors grow. And the standalone pages stopped allowing embedded code, which was an unnecessary door.
I also put in a contact email of our own and links to our social accounts in every footer. A small thing, but when someone has a question, they have somewhere to write.
