[Idea]: migrate web API documentation to use matomo and instrument for better understanding user navigation behavior #22
Description
Idea
Currently, the stdlib web-based API docs use GA for analytics and have only minimal integration. E.g., the API docs application is a SPA which uses React and the app does not record changes in page views; we only record first hits.
The goal of this idea is to migrate to using matomo and take advantage of its privacy features. The work will involve instrumenting the API documentation application and integrating with matomo. A potential stretch goal would be to setup dashboards for reporting so that we can better understand user behavior and continue to improve project documentation.
Expected Outcomes
All user interaction data is logged to matomo and stored in a hosted database.
Involved Software
No other software is necessary.
Prerequisite Knowledge
JavaScript, Node.js, HTML/CSS, JSX/React.
Difficulty
Intermediate.
Project Length
350 hours. Can be adjusted depending on skill and ability.
