Sorry, I have spend enough time in multiple roles, Design, PM, Management, etc.
I have done very scientific and statistically correct experiments to measure time spend in proper way of designing and proper way of front-end development.
I trust my numbers. When you do front-end development your problems are strictly technical, frustration point is little to none compared with designing something. You have multiple tools to debug and measure and your focus is clear.
Design has no quick debugging tools, you work with your knowledge and experience which you try to communicate most objectively with little to no success, because the engineers are always right and you are always categorized as nobody automatically.
This perception was present even in my case, as a designer who codes and pays engineers a competitive salary.
Just yesterday I saw here a job search with description of: Engineers who are Designers.:)
I fit perfectly the description in reverse: Designer who is Engineer. I can bring my ideas to life in full stack dev way. But never will sell my skills so stupidly.
P.S.
Please, down-vote more. This is HN, designers here have little to no voice present. They fear a retribution and stay silent.
- Dudeman112 5y ago>because the engineers are always right and you are always categorized as nobody automatically Seems like it's a (possibly present a lot) culture issue. I love when there's a designer around. I don't give a shit about designing front-ends, so not having to double up at doing the how AND deciding the what is great. But then I'm not particularly fond of front-end work anyway...
