When a table is showing the contents of a CSV file, it should look
something like a spreadsheet.
The minimally skeuomorphic way to do this is by adding row numbers.
This commit doesn’t
- make the row numbers monospace (it’s barely noticeable and doesn’t
reflect what actual spreadsheets do)
- make the first column heading ‘Row’ (again, doesn’t reflect how actual
spreadsheets work, and takes up more valuable space)
This commit adds a 3 screen tour, similar to those used on GOV.UK Verify
and Passports.
We guerilla tested this on Friday, and it really helped users to build a
mental model of how Notify works, so that when they’re playing around
with it they have a greater sense of what they’re aiming to do. This
makes concepts like templates and placeholders click more quickly.

Previously the ‘get started’ block on the dashboard pushed users into
starting with a text message. This led to users writing email content
into a tet message template because it didn’t match their expectations.
Also, the ‘send yourself a test’ link from the dashboard:
- wasn’t much used, because users responded to the similar call to
action on the choose template page instead
- was confusing if you had created an email template because it
presupposed that you’d created a text message template
So this commit changes the ‘get started’ block to be a choice between
creating an email template or a text message template. We reckon that
the language of ‘set up’ will help establish that templates are not
equivalent to individual messages. This language is now repeated on the
‘choose template’ page when you don’t have templates as well.

- add absolute numbers for failures
- make percentages accurate to 1 decimal place (50.0%)
- make error colour appear if failures go above 3.0%
- make error colour boolean (don’t interpolate between the colours)
Some pages with AJAX should update quickly, because the data is likely
to be changing quickly, and be finished changing sooner. Other pages we
want to have tick over a bit slower.
This commit adds an optional ‘interval’ parameter to the updateContent
modules, which sets how often the page should ping the server for an
update.
It then sets the interval for the dashboard page to be 10 seconds,
rather than the default 1.5 seconds.
This commit adds two new sections to the dashboard
1. A banner telling you about trial mode, including a count of how many messages
you have left today, which is a restriction of trial mode
2. Panels with counts of how many emails and text messages have been sent in a
day, plus the failure rates for each
It does **not**:
- link through to any further information about what trial mode is (coming
later)
- link through to pages for the failure rates (coming later)
- change the ‘recent jobs’ section to ‘recent notifications’
