 Product growth, atomic design, ignoring criticism, and more UX this weekWhat's hot in UX this week:
When the implementation looks completely different than what you designed →There are very few things more disappointing when I'm interviewing someone to fill a UX or UI Design position than that comment. That one. That exonerates the designer from anything. That puts the blame on another person, another team, another country, another universe. That one. That usually comes after a praise. "This interaction you created is really great." "Well, thanks… It's a bummer that the implementation sucks though. The developers weren't able to follow what we told them to do and ended up implementing something really bad, super hard to use." Breathe. Interview your product manager →Establishing a good relationship with your product manager is key to making a designer's day-to-day not suck. What to do if your product isn't growing →Many products start out with a bang. Some find product-market fit with sustained growth. Here's how 'critical user journeys' can help a product take off. Adventures in conversational interface: designing for the Amazon Echo →Colors, fonts, and pixels are my bread and butter. Here's my first experience designing a non-visual user interface. Atomic design: how to design systems of components →Digital products need to exist across all devices, screen sizes, and mediums. So why are we still designing our products by "page"?! Designing the perfect date and time picker →When selecting a date is required, quite often it's too tedious and annoying to specify that one date, and too often it produces irrelevant results or even a zero-results page. Booking.com UX analysis and responsive redesign →As a wanderlust and UX designer, I decided to challenge myself by redefining the user experience of Booking.com. Stop taking pictures and start drawing →Some drawings look fresh and alive while others… don't. What is their secret? How to make drawings really come to life? Designing better tables for enterprise applications →An in-depth guide on how to design tables in enterprise applications, and how to avoid commonly made mistakes. When should we ignore criticism? →Criticism can be generative and help us create a more complete picture of whatever it is we're trying to do. But some criticism, while obnoxiously loud, will lack any real substance. News & Ideas
"Don't make something unless it's both necessary and useful. But if it is both necessary and useful, don't hesitate to make it beautiful."– Joshua Porter Tools & Resources
A year ago…20 documentaries every designer should watch →Some of the documentaries listed below are quite famous, some are completely unknown. More than teaching you anything about Design, these films teach something about people — how they behave, what motivates them and how they shape art and culture at the same time they are shaped by it.
