I recently moved from github pages to <a href="http://netlify.com" rel="nofollow">http://netlify.com</a>.<p>And wow everything was just so easy, 5 minutes I had migrated my static site, custom domain and set up SSL.<p>Their documentation and customer support was fantastic.
Weird answer: the tutorial campaign in Factorio, each step is just the right size that you know what you have to do but you have to think a little bit and then the next step is slightly longer/more complex. I've not played a game properly for over a decade but thanks to the tutorial I'm over 60 hours in to Factorio and enjoying every minute.
AnyDesk, a german cross-platform remote desktop access thing.<p><a href="https://anydesk.com/remote-desktop" rel="nofollow">https://anydesk.com/remote-desktop</a><p>When you download an app on e.g. Windows you're used to first going through the installation dance. This app surprised and delighted me by having the downloaded .exe launch into running mode immediately. After I had tried it out and closed it, it <i>then</i> asked me whether I wanted to keep it installed.

Apple's new AirPods onboarding is sublime.<p>One quibble: whoever believed that grey text on white paper was a good idea has issues that need to be addressed.
I thought that the Carvana trade-in onboarding was pure magic. A "custom" video that described the valuation of my car was so cool that even though I ended up trading in my car with a car I bought at a dealership I <i>really</i> wanted to be a Carvana customer.<p><a href="https://www.carvana.com/trades" rel="nofollow">https://www.carvana.com/trades</a>
I'm a fan of the onboarding of <a href="https://privacy.com/" rel="nofollow">https://privacy.com/</a> - simple and clean, the opposite of the traditional payments/banking sector.
Yes! Elasticsearch and associated tools.<p>Their docs are solid. Packages available for many platforms. The tutorial is straightforward. Kibana is excellent for real-time time series graphing.<p>(I'm really biased because of the last sentence.)
I loved <a href="https://zeit.co/now/" rel="nofollow">https://zeit.co/now/</a> passwordless registration and overall first 2 minutes onboarding animations and texts.
I was very impressed with <a href="https://www.graph.cool/" rel="nofollow">https://www.graph.cool/</a> and how they walk you through onboarding with tooltips for every step. Here's a screenshot:<p><a href="https://goo.gl/photos/jhwZSqaXRxHXUwZi9" rel="nofollow">https://goo.gl/photos/jhwZSqaXRxHXUwZi9</a>
As a corollary, are there any good libraries for helping build more complex onboarding flows, or do these all tends to be hand-built from scratch?<p>I've seen a few javascript walk-through tour type libraries, but what about something that integrates with a backend to be stateful on what a user has done?
Not sure about the question is about new user on boarding. Recently, I just installed WhatsApp desktop app on my mac and hooked app on iOS device with desktop app and was blown away by simple QR code trick. I wish we build one click experiences for every integration/on boarding.
Somewhat Helsinki-specific, but the onboarding for the Wolt app is a beautiful one:<p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/fi/app/wolt/id943905271" rel="nofollow">https://itunes.apple.com/fi/app/wolt/id943905271</a>
Headspace's 10 day guided intro sold me pretty much after the first session: <a href="https://www.headspace.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.headspace.com/</a><p>It's kind of a tutorial run so I think that counts as an onboarding?
I was able to get early access to status.im and can say that of all the crypto space solutions out there, onboarding with the mobile app was really intuitive.<p><a href="https://status.im/" rel="nofollow">https://status.im/</a>
The plex app for the ps4 had a painless onboarding process that took about 30 seconds. It had you log in on a browser and put in a code the app gave you. It worked right away and left me impressed.
pillpack.com --> fantastic ui/ux . couldn't say enough good things about them.<p>p.s. they are a mail order pharmacy that packages pills into sachets
We've put quite a bit of effort into our onboarding process at <a href="https://visualteamstatus.com/" rel="nofollow">https://visualteamstatus.com/</a>. Takes less than 60 seconds to go from nothing to a full account and dashboard with analytics. We think that's pretty good considering the integrations required between VTS and Visual Studio Team Services.
