THE APPROACH
A Use Case defines all the ways to use a system to achieve a particular goal. I made sure to define the user’s needs with a sequence of simple steps and then mapped the User Flow. The user’s journey begins by turning on Roku and ends with the user’s ability to successfully edit the newly created folder.
