Types of User

The design of Maavis has kept in mind users at several levels of technical skill:

  • End users – no technical interest or experience
  • Facilitators – basic IT skills including the ability to get media onto computer copy and rename files
  • Technical facilitators – intermediate skills including editing formatted files to update screens and provide web pages.

There are also 2 levels of developer

  • Developers – experienced. Ability to create new web pages using XUL (like HTML), Javascript and CSS
  • Core developers – very experienced – as developers but for platform core, plus possibly Python for Skype integration, C for XPCOM components, Inno setup for installer
