Analytics & Instrumentation
Track decisions, not dashboards. This skill helps you set up analytics that answer the questions that matter — without drowning in data.
Core Principles
- Every metric should connect to an action you'd take differently based on the result.
- Instrument events at build time, not as an afterthought. It's 10x easier.
- More data ≠ better decisions. Focus on 5-10 key metrics per stage.
- Data quality matters more than data quantity. One clean funnel beats fifty broken ones.
Choosing an Analytics Tool
You don't need to write code to track events. Pick a tool, add the snippet, and configure in the UI.
