In this project from INFO-645 Advanced Usability & UX Evaluation, we conducted a usability study with eye-tracking to understand how novice and expert API users interact with the Cooper Hewitt API website. We provided several recommendations focused on improving how people locate the API website (discoverability), find API examples (readability), and learn to run a query (learnability).
