Spike Lean Visual Design Directly into Your Live Style Guide

Spike Lean Visual Design Directly into Your Live Style Guide

Time: 
Wednesday, 4:15pm - 5:05pm
Abstract: 

Have you ever wondered what this mock would "look like in responsive?" Spiking hi-res visual directly into a Live Style Guide is a fantastic way to answer to this question. Also, it helps the designer ensure the continuity of their vision throughout the application.

 

Spike on a Live Style Tile to test a completed composition. Focus on that fancy new drop-down you want to build to guarantee reliable usability on mobile devices. Lower the entire team's acceptance handoff cost by getting the designer's eye on the working front-end code as early as possible.

 

This talk will be looking through a few tools, benefits and war stories surrounding Live Style Guides.
