Hey a designer here. I was thinking of putting together some basic steps which a developer can follow to get a decent design. I am not sure how to present it. There is so much to tell "How to" and "Why" and then other things come-up.
Would you be interested in something like that? How would you like it to be presented?
- petervandijck 15y agoWhy don't you write a series of blogposts? That's be successful. Then, with the feedback on those, turn it into a book/site/... Keep it simple, here's what I'd like to see: Series on doing visual design for developers. 1. keep it simple - no design is better than bad design, some design basics 2. fonts 3. Heavyness of text 4. Picking a color scheme 5. Buttons 6. Doing a simple but clean logo 7. Icons and small visual elements each step really practical with lots of examples etc.
- kingsidharth 15y agoCool! I've been planning it for long. Also would you like more of How-to or theory basics so you can go and do it yourself? Coz either I can tell you the thinking behind or the Photoshop / alt. how-to.s (later suck). Pretty much like - teach you to catch a fish or catch one for you.
- petervandijck 15y agoLight on theory, heavy on examples please. Coders always want to see code. So show them the "hello world" of button making. I know you want to write about theory, everyone does, but leave that for the end and keep it light.
