One of the most misunderstood relationships on cross-functional and software development teams are between the Designers and the Developers.
One of the misconceptions is that the Designer likes most aesthetically pleasing user experience.
On the other hand, the Developer likes building something that’s easier and more feasible
Designers don’t have the technical skill to build the thing that they want to be built
On the other hand, Developers don’t have the perspective of the users’ needs.
Lots of misunderstandings and improper stereotyping.
So.. to handle the tension. There should be:
1. a data-driven decision
2. user feedback
That’s where good UX comes into play. As a previous UX Researcher and now a Product Manager at speakX, Riya Arora shares some guidelines.
