I suggest hiring a web designer to take a look at it. It looks good - but since we're not designer professionals it's possible to get a better design. Imagine a designer taking a 20-hour programming course to build a buggy and semi-functional program to demonstrate his design skills, it wouldn't look too impressive. Just my 2 cents.
- jhgaylor 11y agoDesign is the skill set I want to pick up next, so this is a great chance to learn it. I will though reach out to some designers I respect for advice. Thanks for the feedback and the analogy, it hit the spot. :)
- seanmcdirmid 11y agoIf you are a dev, do dev. Full stack is already a "jack of all trades" label, piling design on top of that is probably a bit much given that the methodologies are quite different from engineering. It might also hurt your CV as you advance, where specialization is expected more than generalization. That being said, a lot of devs seem to do OK with some basic design work, but it drives my wife (a designer who works in a dev shop) a bit crazy given the quality differences between a dev dabbling in design vs. what fully specialized designers can accomplish. Now, an ability to work with designers as a dev is a great skill, especially if you do a lot of front end work.
