Posted to Introducing The Design Genome Project by InVision, in reply to Sacha Greif , Mar 21, 2018 Have to agree, I read the Shopify and Netflix articles but honestly all I took away from it was how many designers to developers there were.
Posted to Sketch/Principle Users: Do You Buy New Updates?, Mar 06, 2018 Yes for Sketch. For Principle, I haven't in 6 months, mainly because I haven't really needed Principle in that time. If I need it for a new project I'd buy a new licence.
Posted to Whimsical.co – a great tool for userflows, flowcharts, etc., Mar 06, 2018 This looks awesome! Looks far better than the other mapping tools out there, which all seem to feel like they were designed in the 90s. I can't wait to give this a go :)
Posted to Monthly internal design meetup, Feb 05, 2018 Sounds like a great idea. Though I'd consider doing this more frequently. Perhaps once a week. Maybe go around each person where they explain what they're working on and doing a little Q/A with each person?
Posted to Redesigned Mac and iOS App Store Web Preview, in reply to Spenser Wolz , Jan 20, 2018 Yep I love this feature. Occasionally if a family member is having issues finding an app I'll login and remote install it. Incredibly handy.
Posted to macOS High Sierra Dashboard Design, Dec 21, 2017 I still use dashboard
