Designer-Developer communication: how to improve UX of product development


Details
"Why implementation looks completely different than what we designed?"
Stories compiled during years of design-development practice:
• How the problem predates the modern computer era, even back to ancient times when role of "architect" slowly detached from "builder"
• How to bridge mental gap in developer mindset (hint: with good communication)
• Important role of documentation in product development process - main attributs should be unique and orderly
• Clear communication and how to improve it across all roles in product development cycle
• What is a role of agile in modern UX process and how to apply it to enhance communication
• Holy grail of product design: motivate shared understanding across all project stakeholders
Case Studies
We have a special guest! Natalie Hughes, director of design in Embroker (https://www.embroker.com) will make introductionary speech and her collegues will present some interesting stories from their experience working with remote teams with time difference of +9 hours.
Our fellows from SpiceFactory (https://spicefactory.co/) contribute with interesting and funny stories, findings and conclusions from their rich experience - along with couple more guests from local community.
Active participation in the discussion is encouraged; attendees should not hesitate to present their own stories and use cases, and make meetup an interactive experience, rather than presentation-based.
