Checklist against the export lifecycle
Each capability is checked against the stages a large export needs: format choice, background processing, progress/notification, and re-access to past exports.

How it works
Weight by typical export size
Larger exports take longer to generate and are more likely to need background processing and notification rather than a blocking, synchronous download.
Recommend the highest-impact fix
Missing capabilities are ranked so you address the ones most likely to cause a frustrating wait or a lost export first.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need background processing for a small export?
Not necessarily — under a few thousand rows, a synchronous export that completes in a couple of seconds is simpler and fine. It becomes important as export size or complexity grows.
Should I always email a link instead of a direct download?
For large or slow exports, yes — it lets the user leave the page without losing the export, and the notification itself confirms completion.
Why does download history matter?
Users often need to regenerate a report they already ran — without a history of past exports, they either redo the whole flow or lose that data entirely.
How is this different from ImportUX?
ExportUX covers getting data safely and understandably out of your product; ImportUX covers getting external structured data safely into it.

MVPHub scores your actual export flow against your typical export size. A blocking button or generic library component may not reflect your specific scale needs.
