👋 Hey Product Hunt! I’m Alex Couch, the Product Design Lead over here at Parabola.
Parabola just launched a completely redesigned Flow-building UI! With the new builder toolbar, you can add steps, find card templates, and discover new features faster than ever.
We designed the builder toolbar with some specific goals in mind…
🧠 Goal #1: A more learnable set of tools.
Parabola provides *lots* of tools to help you automate your workflows. By organizing them into new categories and showing tooltip examples for each step, we’re enabling builders to discover more features and try new ideas.
🔍 Goal #2: Better finding, faster building
Builders are constantly adding new steps and cards to Flows! By giving more space to search and browse for them, we’re speeding up every one of those interactions and shortening your time-to-automate.
👁️ Goal #3: More readable Flows
Parabola Flows can get big, with lots of steps to automate complex data processes. With this release, we’re color-coding steps by *category* to make it easier to differentiate between steps and faster to navigate your Flows.
🍫 Fun fact: we think it’s super!
Internally, we’ve been calling this feature “Superbar 🍫” because we’re so excited for it. We’ve enjoyed using it so far, and we hope you will, too! ✌️
