During November 2024, Kusal enhanced the onboarding experience for the Stencila VS Code extension by adding visual GIF demonstrations to the stencila/stencila repository’s README. Focusing on documentation, Kusal used Markdown and Git-based workflows to integrate media assets that illustrate key user flows such as document creation, sign-in, and guided walkthroughs. This targeted update aimed to reduce friction for new users and accelerate adoption by providing clear, visual guidance within the extension’s documentation. While no bugs were addressed during this period, the work demonstrated depth in user experience design and technical communication, resulting in a more accessible onboarding process for users.
