"It will be an expected part of the design process just like people will begin to expect this level of activity and character in software."
Which design process is this? Maybe at places at Google or agencies handling Fortune 500 companies, but the majority of jobs simply don't have the budget to experiment in any considered kind of process. Therefore, any animation is just a tacked on after thought.
Have you seen the web? The majority of it is completely shit because clients don't have the budget or balls for us to do interesting stuff.
- RickS 12y agoTo use a loaded term, I think things like this do "trickle down". People used to say the same thing about mobile websites - building a responsive framework was a lot of extra schlep that wasn't always in budget. Now we have bootstrap, etc, and what was once a high-level "polish" feature has now become easy and affordable enough to enjoy wide adoption, and entry barriers so low that there's no excuse for omission.
