RAPD: Rapid and Participatory Application Development of Usable Systems
Hisba.co is built on software engineering research focused on producing usable systems rapidly. Our research developed RAPD, a framework that integrates Rapid Application Development, Participatory Design, and usability testing.
RAPD was proposed to balance fast software delivery with deep user involvement, workflow understanding, and continuous usability validation.
