Quantifying UX: Positioning the clone button

This post details the use of UX research, specifically click tests, to quantitatively validate UI design decisions. It describes experiments to determine the optimal placement of the 'clone' button on the project overview page, comparing header placement with placement near the file tree. The research demonstrated that placing the button near the file tree improved discoverability and reduced the time to find it. It also addressed the scenario of empty repositories, leading to the addition of a clone button within the instructions section.
