Spotted an interesting carousel gallery control. The active slide is represented by a dash, making the group look a little like morse code as it scrolls through. Nicely animated. #productdesign

“Digital products…fail because they have not [been imbued] with sufficient humanity.” —About Face. Know your users and make human-centered products. #ux #productdesign

It’s obvious. #ux #productdesign

The beauty of design in nature astounds me

[Matthew Cox @UXdesignman]

Sometimes product design is crafting an email or Slack message that your app needs to send out. The timing of that message. The wording. Don’t relegate yourself to creating great experiences only in Figma. Craft holistically.

Like Jony Ive, I want to come at product design with a “sincere, genuine appetite to do something that is better.” Let’s go make some great products today!

Did an experiment with my 9 year old and asked her what these icons meant. So interesting how much meaning in icons is learned and influenced socially/culturally.

[Matthew Cox @UXdesignman]

We as product designers are creating magic. What happens behind the curtain should not dictate what the people using our product experience. Have some fun today and make some magic! #uxdesign #productdesign #ux

Interesting to see @InVisionApp pivoting to a new product. I admire the way they are going all in on this.

[Matthew Cox @UXdesignman]

@mattdavey Got that one today as well!

[Matthew Cox @UXdesignman]

Good example of an accelerator for power users. Slack lets you double click the plus icon to immediately go to an upload dialog. Tooltip makes it a learnable feature, while not cluttering the interface with instructions. #ux #ui #productdesign

@MrAlanCooper +1 for solidworks. My friends in fabrication shops use that for their CNC mill work. It is parametric capable.

[Matthew Cox @UXdesignman]

@mds Very nice use of Figma!

Teaching a child to use a computer is a great way to get a glimpse into beginners mind. Many of the computing terms we use are so weird if you don’t already know them: application, Finder, window.

Giohy capture does a great job of using a single element for multiple purposes. Save button, progress bar, and success message. #productdesign #ux #uxdesign

Wireframe in black and white or greyscale until your product/feature is viable, then add color and style to emphasize the solid foundation you’ve laid down. #productdesign #ux #ui
