Ramona Sartipi – When Design Thinking Meets Opensource | PyData Global 2023
www.pydata.org
When it comes to open source contributions design is often a second thought. There is a plethora of innovative open source software that is made with little or no contribution from experienced designers, which often leads to inconsistent interfaces, confusing interactions, and ultimately, a poor user experience. When paired together, strong open source projects and human-centered, empathetic design thinking can create software that users can actually use. This session will explore the opportunities for design in open source projects and how developers can exercise a few design practices to influence the adoption and usability of their projects. It will examine what experience design is, why it matters, and the principles behind effective design. Attendees will learn through hands-on activities how to incorporate design thinking strategies into their projects without sacrificing design and how doing so will result in a better product for their users.
