The Designer/Developer Relationship

IMG_1671 Last week, I gave my first “real” talk at WordPress Meetup. I gave a short talk in December, but this time I gave a longer, 25 minute talk about the relationship between developers and designers. When I first started developing websites, I thought that I would have an easier time working with designers because I am one. I had heard a lot of frustration between the two camps and figured that I would be a good bridge. I was wrong! It has taken a lot of trial and error to get the relationship to work well. A good developer/designer relationship can end up yielding much better websites though, that are as close as they can be to the original design.

If you’d like to learn more about this topic, you can see my talk, and Christine Rondeau’s on the same subject, here.
