React Joyride Made My App More Fun — And Kept Users Around Longer

A few weeks ago, I launched a dev tool called Stack Render, aimed at helping developers and indie makers build their MVPs faster and get to market in no time. In the first couple of weeks, I managed to get a few users. But I quickly noticed a problem : low engagement. Most users were signing up and then leaving the app shortly after . To fix this, I implemented an interactive product tour using React Joyride. This helped guide users through key features and showcase the actual value Stack Render offers. My average user engagement time increased significantly.
