Rename package files to assets in the UI
Context
In the UI, we call components of the package Files
In solution validation, users did not understand the terminology Package files
or files
. Solution validation issue
Terminology tested | Problem |
---|---|
keep only the n most recent package files |
Users don’t know what a package file is. |
keep only the n most recent snapshots |
Users think removing a snapshot will remove the entire package. |
Assets feels more appropriate here as the package files are actual the recipe of the package itself. Files feels like extraneous parts of the package.
Proposal
Change the terminology from files
to assets
Place | Picture |
---|---|
Package detail page | |
Ellipsis dropdown | |
Confirmation modal | |
Confirmation banner |
