How do we enable a team to make an informed decision when they lack direct experience with the options?

Instead of relying on theoretical pros and cons, assign a task to build a small, real feature using each competing technology. This provides concrete, context-specific data and direct experience for the team to base their decision on. It moves the discussion from abstract debate to tangible evidence.

Example

To decide between View and React, a team with little experience in either was tasked with building the same new feature in both frameworks to compare them directly.
