turned out that most so called frontend engineers, like 99%, have zero attention to detail. but companies still needed someone either to at least translate properly figma to code or do micro touches.

for me design engineers are actual frontend developers, and those who call themselves frontend developers are actually backend developers, they just work on the backend that’s slightly closer to the client.

the entire team must care about design

not just the designer

The market for start-up design talent has never been more competitive. I’ve had half a dozen companies ask me recently, “how do I get a great founding designer?”

Folks, if you are not already bosom buddies with great designers, you’re gonna need to put out a beacon that attracts top talent:

1. Tell a compelling, true story about your ‘why.’ Make a page dedicated to this. Make your story come alive as only you can. Anyone with ChatGPT can write a generic sounding req about competitive benefits and rocketship grow opps. Write about a problem and vision that is wildly ambitious yet deeply personal to you.

2. Express that you “get” the importance of design. This is your ‘proof of work’ that you will value the person that you hire, for ex (not limited to):
a. Your page / app / website show attention to detail and care for the experience
b. Your description of the job shows a deep understanding of what good design means (do your research here).
c. You talk about design work that you admire or find aspirational.
d. You have design-forward people on your cap table (ie @designerfund, @soleio, @karrisaarinen, @rsg, @tobi, etc)

Ofc easier said than done, but the key is to put some effort into standing out as an incredible environment for designers to do their best work.

Programmers are taught explicitly in all industry standard training curriculums to architect first, then write the code that does anything later—the exactly wrong way to program.

@abdussalampopsy @hobdaydesign this is called optical alignment and its also done with youtube and google for example

Accolades accrue unfairly to people who are public about their work.

It would be nice if the world was a meritocracy, but it isn't.

Fortunately, you can claim this advantage for yourself just by sharing your work!

[Adam Argyle @argyleink]

yep, been sayin this

backend gets to pick the runtime, the version, give it modules, etc

front-end picks nothing, has to satiate multiple browsers that constantly change, network issues, device sizes, user desired input type (finger, mouse, screen reader, etc)!!
