The Right Way to Do Collaborative Design: How to Avoid Designing by Committee
The Right Way to Do Collaborative Design: How to Avoid Designing by CommitteeIDEO founder Tim Brown once said, “Design is everywhere, inevitably everyone is a designer.” And it’s a viewpoint that designers are hearing with increasing frequency; because if you’re a problem solver, you’re a designer, right? Not necessarily.
How Google Ventures Uses Design Sprints to Ship Great Products
How Google Ventures Uses Design Sprints to Ship Great ProductsThe brainstorming meeting, as we know it, is broken. Opinions fly around the room and the “solution” chosen can often rely more on power dynamics than the facts. As former Netscape CEO Jim Barksdale once quipped, “If all we have are opinions, let’s go with mine.” Enter the design sprint, an effective means of testing the potential of your next great idea in a five-day, high-stakes challenge.

What I Saw Inside Apple’s Top-Secret Input Lab — Backchannel
What I Saw Inside Apple’s Top-Secret Input Lab — Backchannel Insiders call it Vallco Parkway. The nondescript building, just a quick hop down 280 from Apple’s Infinite Loop headquarters in Cupertino, houses a nerve center crucial to the fingers of everyone who uses a Macintosh. This is the Input Design Lab, where Apple designs and tests the prototypes for new keyboards, trackpads, and mouses. It’s stuffed with a treasure trove of precision machinery that would make geek hearts patter like a pneumatic drill. Until now, no reporter or press photographer has crossed the threshold. But to mark a new set…
Configuring App Transport Security Exceptions in iOS 9 and OSX 10.11
Configuring App Transport Security Exceptions in iOS 9 and OSX 10.11 App Transport Security (ATS) lets an app add a declaration to its Info.plist file that specifies the domains with which it needs secure communication. ATS prevents accidental disclosure, provides secure default behavior, and is easy to adopt. You should adopt ATS as soon as possible, regardless of whether you’re creating a new app or updating an existing one. If you’re developing a new app, you should use HTTPS exclusively. If you have an existing app, you should use HTTPS as much as you can right now, and create a…
Mathematical Web Typography
Mathematical Web Typography When it comes to designing for the Web I like to follow a handful of general principles. First, design for the medium, or as Frank Chimero puts it, follow “the grain of the Web”. The Web is fluid - based on screens and devices of varying sizes – and typography on the Web should reflect that. Second, design content-out, which usually means designing around a strong typographical base since the large majority of Web content and UI is text. And last, design with modular scales. Things built on the Web should be fluid and infinitely scalable. Using…

Invisible animation
Invisible animationThere’s no doubt that animating user interfaces is a rising trend. Risen enough that the emphasis is often put on the animation itself, rather than on improving the user experience through subtle and functional animation. Pasquale D’Silva gave some good advice in his talk at Web Direction South in 2013, including: Good animation is invisible. You shouldn’t notice that you’re looking at animation. It’s great advice that we — the team behind Campaign Monitor’s email builder — have been trying to apply with a few principles in mind: animation must improve the usability, feel natural and subtle, and give feedback to the user.…

Design the user, not the experience | Userbrain
Design the user, not the experience | Userbrain Help people become better versions of themselves. That’s in a nutshell what I believe to be the secret of any great design. It’s not about the user interface or the user experience or anything like this – it’s all about the user.
From MVC to MVVM in Swift
From MVC to MVVM in Swift Following Apple’s advice and sticking with Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern seemed like a good idea at first, but as the app continued to grow, logic that drove some parts of it started to became complex to the point where making changes was accompanied with the feeling of unease and fixing issues in one part of the code with the fear of causing new bugs in some other parts. It would not be fair to blame only MVC for that – of course that some problems are caused by bad programming, lack of experience and…
