Description

[krupa raj[:krupa]]

In the developer hub, we ask developers to create a developer profile. We should link this from details page.

We give them the option to create one, but it's not required.  CCing Bryan to see if he wants to put this somewhere.  Bryan - this is two paragraphs of text, eg. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/developers

Is this about the Why/What's next for Adblock or the Who is this Developer text?

The why/what's next could go under the ( More ) block for the actual app if we think this is really useful - i'm not sure yet until I understand it's goal more.

It's about the why/what's next text.  It was originally from when we started letting people ask for contributions.  Whether it applies to marketplace is up to you.

I like it because it's a very personal message from the developers to users.  Though the goal is obviously tuned toward asking for support from users; as in I can't see a large gaming company writing something there.

Since it's not really intended for people shopping as much as people who are users who might want to contribute or learn more lets keep it hidden under the ( More ) button for now.

I propose that we get rid of this page. Having a developer profile page made sense for add-ons seeking contributions. With our mobile first strategy, we don't have enough real estate to show this information anywhere on the details page.

If you feel strongly about retaining this page, please enumerate your reasons in this bug.

I think we should hide this until we know what we're doing with it.
