UX Case Study: Turning Directory Listings into Micro-Tours with TypeScript Dashboards (2026)

Hook: Static Directories to Micro-Tours — Faster Engagement with Types and Dashboards

We turned a static directory of local experiences into interactive micro-tours using typed APIs and analytics dashboards. The result: higher engagement and measurable conversion lifts. This case study highlights the TypeScript contracts and telemetry flows used to drive product decisions.

Approach

• Define typed tour payloads and version them.
• Ship edge validators to ensure devices display consistent content.
• Integrate creator analytics to track which tours drove conversions.

Results

Engagement increased by 28% and conversion metrics improved. The typed contracts allowed rapid iteration without breaking existing content flows.

Conclusion

Typed APIs plus analytics gave product teams confidence to iterate rapidly and measure outcomes precisely. These patterns work particularly well for local discovery and micro-experiences.
