|---|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | The Lean UX Canvas helps clarify user behavior, touchpoints, and concept decisions. It makes assumptions and desired outcomes visible and captures the result as a completed canvas, hypothesis list, and first experiment. | An ADR permanently records an architecture decision with context, trade-offs, and consequence. It creates continuity for later changes because the decision path stays traceable. | The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible. | The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success. |
