Design Pattern Libraries

#sxsw #patternlib

Iap24247

UI design practices have evolved over the years. Too much or too little design documentation can create a gap between designers and engineers, but there is an easier way. Today’s solutions allow designers to communicate designs in an efficient manner, using tools that are easy to manage and maintain. No matter the size of the project, design patterns allow for consistency across the user experience. In this session we’ll discuss new ways to communicate designs and the process of creating, maintaining, and evolving a design language using a pattern library. Learn about how to document and share design patterns, involve others, and create a uniform user experience in the process.
