Final Demo
- What? Demo Day is when you will present your final MVP Product to your cohort
- Why? It's an excellent exercise on how to sell yourself and your teamwork and to celebrate your achievement
- How? Present your product in 10 minutes using a combination of presentations, live demonstrations and videos. Make sure everyone in the team is speaking.
- What? Tell the story of how and why you built this product. Use the below inputs
- Explain what they’ve achieved
- What have you learned, personally and as a team? This can be related to technology, product, process,...
- Which parts did you find most enjoyable and/or interesting?
- Has that impacted what you’re thinking about in terms of careers or next steps? How?
- How did you find collaborating as a team? What was made easier or harder by working with others compared to working largely on your own
- How happy are you with where you got to?
- What did the users think?
- What part of the product would you build next if you had more time?
Presentation tips:
- Have a script for the demo and practice it!
- Practice switching between demo and slides so that you don't waste too much time on it
- Use tabs to pre-fill forms - we don't need to see you type out stuff, especially if you don't explain it
- Use Incognito mode to prevent logging into/out. With incognito mode, you can be logged into multiple accounts at once
- Consider recording a (silent) video of the demo - what if there's no internet? Or the app goes down?
- Get someone to hold the mic if you're typing/demoing - then you have two hands!
- Make the font bigger so people can see it at the back of the room. (Ctrl-+ on Windows/Linux or Cmd-+ on Mac)
Common questions after the demo
It's a good idea to prepare answers to these questions:
- What was your biggest challenge?
- If you were starting from scratch, would you change anything?
- How did you test your app?
- How does your app work on mobile devices? Did you think about accessibility?
