Design-Engineering Workflow

As UI engineers on Android, we spend a lot of time interacting with designers. Android currently lacks the tools that would make the translation from design (mockups, assets, specs) to implementation (layouts, drawables, code) a lot smoother. In this talk, I'll share some thoughts on the core components of what I'd consider an ideal design-engineering tooling/workflow on Android (where dspec is just a tiny piece of the puzzle).

Presented at the Festive Londroid meetup in London.
