This is very accurate, I’d very much recommend this video to future UX designers. I’m an engineer and this is the kind of designers I love working with!
Love this video! Great insights. What I mainly took from this video was to share your UI frequently as possible to allow time to pivot to new designs if needed because of technical constraints. Nothing should be a surprise once the handoff day comes. One thing that has helped me since transitioning to this UX/UI role was seeking out what communication style is preferred. My PM prefers quick in-person chats, while my software lead prefers instant messaging to allow him to answer back when he can. It can be a little frustrating at first, but patience and understanding are key. We are all trying our best.
Absolutely agree with trust. Been a UX D for almost 2 years, and creating a strong relationship with other stakeholders has helped me in streamlining the design process
It still depends on the “vibe” and experience of the engineers per say. I’ve dealt with horrible ones that lie when a simple design is visible just because they don’t want to work as much, or just don’t take you seriously because you’re “just the designer”
Some don’t even want to share with you the roadmap because “you’re not needed now”, when you need to know/adjust the scalability of your current progress/designs ://
@@maddiandsushi That's why trust is important. Developing a certain type of relationship beyond work can definitely help. When you actually need to communicate your concerns, as you've trusted each other, that difficult conversation can be less of a friction. Good luck!
@@jodierizky- that's great in a perfect world. But what about if I don't want to build relationships or the same the other part. But the communication is great
@@btandayamo aha, what I mean by 'relationship' is that it does not have to reach that 'best friend' kind of relationship, the important part is trust. I suggest to read 'Never Split the Difference' by Chris Voss so that you understand the context. The book explains how can our communication builds trust with others and the good part about it is that we can rely on ourselves on this (to also answer your second point) Although I do understand where you're coming, as I don't always get the best of experience at work even having this knowledge in hand, but it definitely takes some of the burden away, and has matured my mindset--a solid help during tough times. This kind of knowledge/thinking has also (fortunately) helped me in ace-ing all of my UX interviews. Good luck and never stop learning 👌
Great video. Adding that in some cases, you’ll have a product backlog full of epics, features, and detailed user stories so that when different criteria arise from talking with the different stakeholders, you can document that under the product’s acceptance criteria.
@@crissyrichy epics are use cases. Think of a use case as a specific end to end journey. “A user creates an account in a pre approved state before an admin approves” The epic here would be Account Creation, with the sentence above as the description. Then, you’d derive features from there (another categorization of the product, tons of ways to do this) and then finally user stories to develop it all.
Thanks for this quick video.. this was very helpful in understanding the best ways to have a happy and healthy relationship with fellow engineers. Communication and Collaboration is definitely key for an overall great working experience for designing and developing digital products effectively. I also use Loom to record my design walkthroughs for my engineers since sometimes we can't agree on a specific time for a Zoom/Google Meets discussion. Thanks again and I am excited for your next video 😊
I think UI/UX designers should have some theorical knowledge in Apple's and Android's UI-API's (UINavigation, UITabBar, UISlider, etc). I've seen designs that look gorgeous but are extremely expensive as you can't use most of the platform's API's to achieve them.
How do you limit back and forth after implementation in regards to UI? Quite often the UI comes out super clunky in regards to spacing. Often at other places I’ve had almost no issues, but at my current place it’s a crap shoot what you get. The design is usually like 75% of the way there. Getting closer to 90% at least would be nice
When you design the high-fidelity prototype of a website for mobile devices, do you always include the phone's top bar showing the clock, battery, etc? What are the standards on this matter in UX/UI Design?
Possibly dumb question 🙃 but when you talk about engineers, do you refer to frontend, backend, both? Does it depend on the company and/or team dynamic? If anyone can chare their experience, it's also much appreciated! Thank you!
Technically both but mainly the frontend team. The front end works to create the design from designer then the backend focuses on the functionality what happens when the buttons click, login validation, hosting, integrations etc. They should both be included in the discussion for best results
@@Chris-vt5zl ahh I see. So in these general team meetings both front end and backend engineers are present but from what I understand designers might meet up with one or the other depeding on specific issues?
Make a video on full process of creating an application or web page from back end developer to the UI designer(whole process) it will be useful for beginners. And there is no video like that so, create one
Amazing! Thanks for sharing this material, but I have a question: how did you manage with cases when you have to know your team thoughts, and have to share a Figma prototype? For example, you have a new feature, and you have to be sure that it’s clear enough for users.
Thank you so much for this 🥰 I was wondering, where do I begin so that I have a portfolio to show? Do I try to take a random site I think needs to be updated and work this way? Cause I don't feel confident enough to just propose myself to a ux design job since I'm an infographist, but I feel like I would really enjoy this and would want to know what I'm capable of before. What would you suggest? 💮
I face the same kind of issues when handling specific design solutions with developers. It’s always best to collaborate and share inclusive relationships with each other to build and deliver effective roadmaps :) sometimes ideas are nice to have, but will that work in real world problems? The success relies on both domains - design + engineering. Let’s learn to appreciate each other’s thoughts and constraints! Sometimes it’s frustrating when they express I need time to solve x then y cos of this or that.. yea ok.. but they need to also understand a designer is desperately looking forward the same thing when creating something feasible for the developer to work on.
Nice video! lots of valuable content ... I've been thinking of using loom with my dev teams lately too. I've always found process like this struggles when you're assigned to multiple projects and dev teams, do you have any tips for juggling multiple projects at one time?
Thanks for the video :) I'm a brand designer wanting to move to UX design. Currently working on my first app design! I'd just like to get feedback from the UX community, do you know any website?
I love how you discuss project collaboration and this is random but Ahmed is really hot 💀💀💀 sorry I had to say it but I enjoy these pointers on discussing designs to non designers
i mean, this is common sense? Surely people know stuff like, developers should be in the loops coz you don't want to create something which they can't actually do?? I annoy the hell of my devlopers by asking them like a 100 diff questions, on can we do this, would that be a problem etc ect. That being said, my developers are amazing and have pulled off alot of my crazy designs.
I am really dissapointed, i expected way more, no coding experience, just showing images and expecting someone to approve what you already did. Expected more;/
What you're thinking of is a Technical UX Analyst/Designer, someone who knows the visual/UX as well as some of the front/backend stuff including content architecture - there's so many different roles in this space but typically we don't expect UX Designers to know code though it does help - also from my experience so far a UX Designer who knows a bit of coding doesn't have that much of a pay boost to standard rates compared to those who are super strong UX Designers, so there really is no real advantage to being a UX designer who can code stuff up pay-wise

what features do you use most in figma when designing like autolayout etc
