You're right. Every discussion about "designers should code" always shows problem in teamwork and communication, not in coding skills. :)
And even if as I was saying learning to code is a way to create these skills, like designing things is for developers, another way is just listening to the developers/designers in your team. It works very well and it's way more efficient for a lot of different people. :)
Teamwork, and trust.
- mgkimsal 15y agoAgreed, although "just listening" doesn't go as far as "just listening while also having walked a bit in their shoes, or at least tried those shoes on for size." I saw a presentation by a designer/developer team a couple years back - one blog entry on that is here: http://www.viget.com/inspire/stop-driving-your-developers-crazy/ http://www.viget.com/inspire/stop-driving-your-developers-cr... Another here: http://www.viget.com/extend/stop-pissing-off-your-designers/ http://www.viget.com/extend/stop-pissing-off-your-designers/ And slides here http://www.slideshare.net/mindywagner/10-things-designers-do-that-piss-developers-off-and-vice-versa http://www.slideshare.net/mindywagner/10-things-designers-do...
- folletto 15y agoYeah, that's a huge collection of communication problems, great. Exactly on spot. :)
