## Happy hacking in Alpha
### Happy hacking in Alpha
In the earliest stage of any project, you will still be figuring out the interfaces your software has to the outside world. Requirements will evolve, be defined and change yet again - and so will your interfaces. Which is fine for quite a while: as long as your development setup allows you to recreate a fresh environment to work against easily, you are free to break basically anything with every commit.

## Lots of ways to break your software
### Lots of ways to break your software
Another thing you will need to think about before you can even start versioning your software are the interfaces you expect your users to use, and those that your users will actually use. Just because you do not document a method of your library, it doesn't necessarily mean it will not be used in the wild. And just because your database migration script assumes a well defined set of tables in the application database, it doesn't mean some user might have started storing other data in there. Applications like Offen will have different constraints than libraries or developer tools do. It's important to know if *you need to interface with data, code or humans* as all of these interfaces come with their own set of constraints.
Steering the code being written and the interfaces exposed into a direction where its usage is as unambiguous as possible will pay off when it comes to knowing what you can actually break with a release. If you explicitly consider something to be unstable and internal, communicating this clearly will be of great help to anyone who's trying to use your product or build upon it.
## When do you even start versioning?
### When do you even start versioning?
If you develop software, you want others to use it. If you're a user, you want your software to be reliably versioned and updated. This means that at some point, a project will have to start versioning, and its *users will start to project their expectations onto the version numbers being applied*.
When exactly you choose to start doing this depends on what you are focusing on.
### Feature completeness
#### Feature completeness
Depending on your product, it might not make sense to use it before all of the features you are planning to build are included. Venturing down this path, it's a good opportunity for deferring versioning a little longer. If the lack of features makes adoption impossible anyways, you won't hurt it any further if you don't release versioned software.
### Establishing a userbase
#### Establishing a userbase
Alternatively - assuming your product allows you to do so - you might also want to start shipping way before you are feature complete, establish a userbase, and gain understanding on what these users are doing with your product. These insights come with a price: you need to start versioning. Users that don't have clear and documented ways of upgrading their software without any unexpected surprises stop being users once the version they are using stops being on par with what both you and others are offering. If it's just as easy to install something else as it would be to upgrade to a newer version, why should your users stick?

Another important factor to consider here is which target audience you are actually serving. Will non-technical people really value a version number that tells them about API stability, upgrade paths and such? Could a product like Microsoft Windows really work with such a purely technical versioning scheme? If your audience is far, far away from implementation details, they are probably just interested in you making it work for them.
### SemVer and early stage software
#### SemVer and early stage software
For what their spec calls "initial development", SemVer uses `0.x.x` versions that come with no guarantees at all, which in the scope of this article doesn't leave us with much but the underlying concepts of *breaking changes, features and patches*. Certain scenarios might want to map these to a pre-v1 scheme or at least adopt the same vocabulary when communicating about the changes included in a new release in your changelog.

## Flexibility vs Stability
### Flexibility vs Stability
Moving towards a v1.0 every slightly larger project will find itself oscillating between these two goals. What makes decisions in this regard even harder is the fact that both opposites are of equal importance to your project. *Adding new features to a product requires flexibility and stability* at the same time.
Moving towards a v1.0 every slightly larger project will find itself oscillating between these two goals. What makes decisions in this regard even harder is the fact that both opposites are of equal importance to your project. *Adding new features to a product requires flexibility and stability* at the same time.
A common approach towards solving this antagonism is the introduction of budgets for both sides. Maybe each iteration has a dedicated budget for breakage and experimenting, just like it has a budget for areas that remain stable and will only change when their interfaces can be guaranteed to stay the same. Maybe every other iteration will focus on stability while the alternating ones will allow for breakage and experimenting. The latter is a concept adopted early on by the Node.js project where an odd version number will signal "punk rock", i.e. unstable and rapid progress, and even version numbers will signal "Fortune 500", i.e. stability.
Whatever approach a project picks, finding a suitable way of balancing these two requirements will be a major enabler of adoption.

In addition to that we added new metrics and improved the overall user experience for both users and operators alike.

### Account Management fundamentals
#### Account Management fundamentals
Operators that are using Offen to improve their services are likely to work in teams. This is why the application needs tools for managing user logins and accounts for segmenting usage data. In a first draft we added basic versions of these features so that the absence of such capabilities doesn't further prevent the adoption of Offen. This initiative has been started in [PR 288](https://github.com/offen/offen/pull/288) and will be refined further during Milestone 4.
### In-Browser setup
#### In-Browser setup
The command line can seem daunting when you don't use it regularly. This is why we added an in-browser setup screen for Offen. Instead of performing the initial setup using the `offen setup` command from the CLI, operators who prefer to do so can now use their browser to navigate to the `/setup` URL of their installation and perform the initial setup there. We hope this helps us gaining further traction with semi-technical users that want to use privacy friendly tools. This has been implemented in [PR 299](https://github.com/offen/offen/pull/299).

### Goodbye, Choo
#### Goodbye, Choo
We started out with using Choo as our frontend framework and it was a great choice as it allowed us to build dynamic UIs very rapidly. But as Offen's Auditorium was growing over the last few months we noticed its lack of mechanisms for breaking interfaces into components was starting to slow us down significantly and made simple changes cumbersome to implement.
This is why - before starting work on the annotated Auditorium - we migrated the application to use Preact in [PR 289](https://github.com/offen/offen/pull/289). Preact is a great choice as it allows us to use modern paradigms for programming interfaces without having to buy into a Facebook-dominated ecosystem. The library is distributed under a MIT license.
### Signed binary downloads
#### Signed binary downloads
As we start to target more and more distribution channels, ensuring the integrity of what people actually download is very important for an application like Offen.

Downloaders can now verify that a binary they are planning to use is the one we intend to distribute:

```
### Safari Support
#### Safari Support
Offen generates client side keys for encrypting data for each user. At the end of Milestone 2 we noticed issues where the Safari browser would not store these keys properly which means users would lose access to their user data. We fixed this in [PR 282](https://github.com/offen/offen/pull/282) by adding a fallback mechanism that Safari can use. Keys are guaranteed to be safe from third party access in both implementations.
### 1-Click Deploy
#### 1-Click Deploy
Self hosted software is a great fit for privacy focused software like Offen. Yet, it can seem daunting to non-technical users and make them stick to established SaaS solutions longer than needed. This is why we put a lot of effort into finding easy "1-click" options to deploy an Offen instance. In Milestone 3 we have created a 1-click solution for deploying Offen to Heroku: [https://github.com/offen/heroku](https://github.com/offen/heroku). Using free resources only, people interested in running Offen can now deploy a production ready instance to Heroku in less than 1 minute.

### Next up
Milestone 4 is up next and is called "Managing Data". This means we will focus on features that allow operators and users to manage their usage data and Offen instances.
This is also *where we will have a slight deviation from the original product plan*: We originally had an item called "Selective Data deletion for users", yet as we have moved to focus on self-hosting more and more, this feature does not make too much sense anymore. Instead we will allow users to delete their data tied to an instance entirely and *will make it easy to follow how deletion works and what the implications are*.

## Scenarios where Offen is a good fit
### Scenarios where Offen is a good fit
Offen is designed to be lightweight and easy to install. It's probably not a good fit if you need advanced features like interaction heatmaps or tracking the funneling of users across multiple sites, but if you want a lean way of knowing how people use your website without invading your user's privacy, Offen is a solid choice.
### *Handling multiple low-ish traffic sites on a single instance*
#### *Handling multiple low-ish traffic sites on a single instance*
One scenario we are targeting is deploying an Offen instance and using it for analyzing multiple low traffic sites (like for example blogs or side projects). Offen allows you to create as many accounts as you like, so you can have one bucket per each of these projects that you want to run analytics on.

As for data storage, you will likely want to use the default SQLite option in this scenario which stores data in a file on the host system.
### *Handling a single high traffic site*
#### *Handling a single high traffic site*
If you are working on a bigger project with a lot of traffic, you might consider deploying a single instance for that project only. Also, this is a scenario where we would recommend using a dedicated database server instead of using a local SQLite file, as it would allow you to scale Offen further while your traffic grows.

## Some available hosting providers
### Some available hosting providers
This list is a non-exhaustive collection of hosting providers that we happen to know and have used ourselves. We are in no way affiliated with any of these, don't earn any money when you install Offen there, and definitely don't want to push you anywhere. We do want you to use Offen though, of course, but it's always your choice where to run it. If you know of any other good option, tweet them our way [@hioffen](https://twitter.com/hioffen){: target="_blank"}.
### [AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/){: target="_blank"}
#### [AWS](https://aws.amazon.com/){: target="_blank"}
The obvious choice for hosting your Offen instance in the AWS ecosystem is probably using EC2 (which is a virtual server). For handling Offen in any of the above scenarios a `t3.nano` instance is sufficient, which - at the time of writing - bills at *USD 3.90 per month*. In case you have just recently signed up for AWS, you could also run Offen using the *free tier usage plan* that gives you one free `t2.micro` (this, by the way, is also how we are currently running our own instance).

### Accessibility Audit
#### Accessibility Audit
As an NGI Zero project we are lucky enough to have great people in our network by default. This time Stichting Accessibility helped us with an A11y audit of Offen. This audit resulted in helpful feedback and action points for us to improve upon the A11y aspects of the Offen Auditorium and make Offen an analytics tool for everyone.

### Security Audit
#### Security Audit
Another really helpful experience was having Offen audited from a security perspective by the wonderful people from Radically Open Security. We had a great time looking at Offen together, checking for exploits, leaky crypto, security issues and discussing general design questions that came up while working on Offen. We did not find major flaws, but instead came up with a couple of very good ideas about how to make Offen more secure and harden the server even further. These have been implemented by now and are included in the latest release, so make sure to update.

#### More deployment targets and tests
Offen's deployment story as a single binary file and no external database required is relatively easy, yet there is always room to improve, especially for a non-technical audience. While we already have tested installing Offen successfully on a multitude of providers, ranging from industry leaders like AWS to offbeat offerings like Uberspace, we want to look into more options. While doing so we will share our findings with the public so they can use our experience when installing Offen themselves. We will also look into how we can make running Offen even easier. Maybe this one configuration value isn't even needed. Maybe creating your first account can be even easier. Let's find out.
### Reaching out to the community

### Spreading the word
#### Spreading the word
We've built a unique analytics software, and we sense the time is just about right for shifting paradigms when it comes to collecting and handling data. However, if noone knows about Offen, noone can use it. Now that we have a working beta, we can start marketing Offen more aggressively all across the internet. If you have ideas for a good fit in terms of audience, let us know.
### Performance improvements
#### Performance improvements
Securing the data collected as much as possible has always been (and will always stay) the most important aspect when developing Offen. This makes having Offen perform well on large datasets (i.e. sites with a lot of traffic) is hard. While it's already usable in these scenarios - and it's an obvious tradeoff where we have a clear priority - there is still room for improvement.
This is why we'd like to look into ways of making Offen faster while still satisfying the strict privacy and security requirements we have. Check [this issue](https://github.com/offen/offen/issues/448) for ideas about how we plan to implement this.
### Defining the future of Offen
#### Defining the future of Offen
This post is closing Milestone 6 out of 6. This means we have successfully built and shipped a working beta version of Offen. It also means it's up to us to define what we want to do next.
The obvious path is further extending and maintaining Offen, which we will continue to do. Yet, we'd also like to work on ideas about how we can make the tech, and also the ethical principles that Offen is built upon available to the public. In the end, Offen is a lot more than just an analytics tool.
### Adding a second locale
#### Adding a second locale
Localizing software at an early stage is hard, so we developed Offen as English-only up until now. Luckily, we already placed all the hooks need for localizing Offen in our codebase. Now that Offen has become more stable and mature, we think it's a good time to start adding a second locale. In our case, German is the obvious choice, so we are planning to make Offen available in German as well in the next months. If you're interested in helping us localize Offen in the language of your choice, we'd be happy to hear from you [in the corresponding issue on GitHub](https://github.com/offen/offen/issues/453).

#### A better Auditorium
Before we will tackle some major UX updates that will primarily benefit the operators, we first took a closer look at the user side. Users' access to their data is one of our key features. However, the feedback we have collected so far has shown us that the context and functionality presented in the Auditorium is not instantly clear to some users. To address this, there now is an onboarding feature for the first-time user when visiting the Auditorium. Here, in addition to a short insight into the data just collected, the basic functionality of Offen is pointed out once again. Moreover, as little extras, there is now an empty state illustration on the user side and a loading state animation for all to enjoy.
