Let’s get cooking
Designers can’t get less creative, the more you produce design
assets the more creative you get overtime #experience
The Problem
It’s quite hard to find a single designer who contribute
to open- source efficiently.
Contributing to open-source as a Designer, starting out can be
intimidating and confusing based on the level of features you see already prepared with little or no documentation for designers
The ideology of designers not needed in open-source, but just
make it work.
The Solution
Resources: tailored towards how to contribute to open-source as a
designer. Thanks to Open Source Design, Open Source Initiative and others creating design related content in relation to Open Source
Tools: Developers/companies need to create more tools to help aid
designers contribute to open- source.
Designers need to understand how to communicate with Developers and
Developers have to understand how to communicate with Designers
Getting started with OSS
Open-Source in a nutshell is a free software built by
the community for the community with improvements shared across different technical talents.
The Web has been open- source since `View Page Source`
How can a designer begin contributing to open-source?
The GitHub issue tab is the best place to start
out.
Evaluate a chosen project’s workflow, Client end usability, colour combination
and every design related component
Never start a feature without consulting one of the project
authors, if its a valid add and how it can also be improved
Coming up with alternative design patterns, but raising an issue
in relation to why, how and timeline
Prototype your designs properly if you are contributing to an
OS project where they careless about design so as to convince them of how this feature is supposed to work and not the way it currently works.
Crappy things some engineers say about design.
Design is an ideology not a professional profession.
Design is the Personality of your project, it needs to
speak - @developerayo @developerayo_ at #FutureSync20 Screenshot & Tweet This:
If the end product is quality software, why can't designers
code?
Design is one of the most significant department while building
a startup product and also working on an open- source project.
The Web has been open-source for designers to contribute to
using the `Web Inspector` which grants you access to live debugging design in CSS.
DEMO
Version Control `design history` & Something like Git for Designers,
Being able to push designs between design tools with ease.
Designing for multiple devices/ responsiveness.
Start Writing Documentations for other designers to see and follow
along It’s a trend someone has to start
Someone didn’t start because they believed someone else would, at
the end, no one end’s up starting until a couple of years later. @developerayo at #FutureSync20 Screenshot & Tweet This:
