I disagree with this and am tired of the coupling between front-end development and design.
Especially on large apps, dedicated designers do the designer. Front-end developers implement.
- madeofpalk 11y agoThe inverse of this is when there's a glaring error in a design (we all write bugs - this is just a design bug) and the front end dev implements that in the final product. Of course, other processes (QA, Design QA, etc) has to fail for this to go through to production... I don't think we need FE Devs who are full on designers, but FE devs who are design 'aware' are, in my experience, much better.
- morgante 11y agoYes, I think they should be able to tell when a design is off, but that's different from design skills. Developers need as much a design ability as designers need engineering ability.
