Designers are supposed to be fluent in the medium they are designing for. Without understanding what's possible, what's easy, what's hard, what squeezes and what scales, or what's going to have a negative impact on site performance, how can one be a great designer?
- emehex 3y agoI think a good designer polls his dev team to help him figure out what’s a “big lift” and whats easy. And a good developer works with her designer to point out “big lifts” and helps find compromises!
- alwaysbeconsing 3y agoDesigners should be very familiar with the standard widgets, idioms, and interactions of the platforms they're designing for, but I don't think performance is rightfully something they should have to worry about.
