find!
Perception of designers not needed in open-source, just make it
work.

designer.
Tools: Developers/companies needs to create more tools to help aid
designers contribute to open-source.
Some open-source contributors you should know...

code?
Design is necessary in building startup products and open-source product
in the realm of open-source.
The web has been open-source for designers using the “Web
Inspector”, live debugging design in CSS and JavaScript.
Version Control (design history)
Designing for multiple devices
Designing for multiple devices/responsiveness
Make Horrible design suck less
Always design for designers, developers often build for other developers
to contribute to.
