Big meeting:
TPAC 2023 (Calendar)

To develop features and discuss alternative designs, standardization groups often ponder the needs of web app developers. To collect feedback from developers, ad-hoc mechanisms are being used, including:

  • Invitations to participate in the group, in group meetings or in group discussions

  • Presentations in developer conferences and podcasts

  • Shoutouts on social networks, possibly associated with formal or more informal surveys

  • Internal research programs run by a company

  • Broader developer surveys such as State of CSS, State of JavaScript, or the older MDN DNA survey.

Could more systematic developer research be conducted and made available to groups when they need it? The WebDX Community Group proposes this breakout session to discuss providing developer research as a service in standardization groups and collect requests for research data that groups may need.

For additional background, the WebDX Community Group, created last year, conducts research to make available quantitative and qualitative data to all aspects of the web platform feature life cycle. Current research data is the result of MDN short surveys and contributions to existing survey programs.
