What Makes a Good Designer? with Lisa Sy & Kuan Luo

Listen to S3E7 of DevDiscuss right here on DEV:

A good application is inseparable from a superb visual experience — as developers, we can learn a lot from designers.

In this week's episode of DevDiscuss, @jess and I got a chance to do exactly that.

We were joined by two guests who have a ton of insight into the crucial relationship between design and development.

  • Kuan Luo, designer and entrepreneur, currently on a learning sabbatical. Her last project was Elpha, an online community for women in tech.

  • Lisa Sy, Lead Product Designer at Forem
