A classic example of a product that followed the product evolution roadmap from minimum viable product (MVP) to full-scale product is the social media platform, Facebook. Initially, Facebook started as a simple website called "Thefacebook" in 2004, designed for Harvard students to connect with each other. This was the MVP stage. As the platform gained popularity, it expanded to other universities and eventually to the general public, adding more features such as the "Wall", photo sharing, and status updates. This was the core product stage. Today, Facebook is a full-scale product with a multitude of features including marketplace, groups, events, and more. It has also acquired other companies like Instagram and WhatsApp, further expanding its product offerings.
