Don't set up a demo site. Make it so that I can use the app with data backed by LocalStorage until I decide to sign up.

- levlaz 11y agoInteresting idea, thanks a lot!
- nothrabannosir 11y agoDangerous idea; you lower the motivation for users to register, and when one accidentally clears their history they may become so disappointed they won't restart using your app. Doesn't matter who's to blame--they're still sad. Everything has its pros and cons, this idea is not self-evidently better.
- xixixao 11y agoYep, I agree. You can elevate that risk but making it clear in the UI that your data is not being saved on the server. If you are the kind of person who clears their LocalStorage often, I think you know what the risks are.
