BMAD Method User Journeys

This section provides comprehensive documentation of user journeys through the BMAD Method, helping product managers and stakeholders understand the complete user experience.

Overview

User journeys map the complete path that different users take when interacting with the BMAD Method. These journeys illustrate:

  • Entry points and initial interactions
  • Key decision points and actions
  • Transitions between personas
  • Pain points and their solutions
  • Success metrics and outcomes

Available User Journeys

Journey Primary User Focus Complexity
First-Time Setup New User Initial configuration Low
Project Initiation Product Owner Starting a new project Medium
Feature Development Developer Implementing features High
Design System Creation UX/UI Architect Building design systems High
Architecture Planning System Architect Technical planning High

Journey Map Components

Each user journey includes:

  1. Persona Profile: Who is taking this journey
  2. Goals and Motivations: What the user wants to accomplish
  3. Entry Points: How the user begins their journey
  4. Journey Stages: Sequential phases of interaction
  5. Touchpoints: Specific interaction moments
  6. Decision Points: Where users make choices
  7. Pain Points: Challenges users may face
  8. Solutions: How to address pain points
  9. Success Metrics: How to measure journey success

How to Use These Journey Maps

For Product Managers

  • Understand the complete user experience
  • Identify opportunities for improvement
  • Prioritize enhancements based on pain points
  • Communicate user needs to stakeholders

For Developers

  • Understand the context of feature requests
  • See how your work fits into the larger user experience
  • Identify integration points and dependencies

For UX/UI Designers

  • Identify key interaction moments
  • Understand emotional states throughout the journey
  • Design for pain points and decision moments

Journey Visualization Guide

Our journey maps use consistent visual language:

  • Green: Positive experiences and emotions
  • Yellow: Neutral or transitional moments
  • Red: Pain points or challenges
  • Stars: Key decision points
  • Diamonds: Success metrics
  • Circles: Touchpoints with the system

Next Steps

  1. Review the First-Time Setup journey to understand the onboarding experience
  2. Explore Project Initiation to see how projects begin
  3. Examine Feature Development for the core development workflow
  4. Analyze Design System Creation for UX/UI processes
  5. Study Architecture Planning for technical planning workflows

Understanding user journeys is essential for optimizing the BMAD Method experience and ensuring it meets user needs effectively.
