Devs seem tied down to the frameworks they use. Creativity shouldnt be restrained by the tools.

    Middle management only wants Material Design 3, to show that we are on the cutting edge.

    Lol. I asked my devs to add mouse event control (drag, wheel) to a viewer we found on the internet with full, functioning source (it was part of a tutorial). They disappeared, and it been a couple of weeks now... Smh.

    The dev tools getting better over time has meant that it’s easier for us to make interfaces that can accommodate a lot of different screen sizes and zoom levels and accessibility stuff. But all those varieties of screen sizes means it’s very difficult to make those nice pixel-perfect interfaces and still work on most devices.

    And that’s not even taking into consideration the project manager yelling “FASTER FASTER FASTER” all day. A lot of us would love to return to hand-crafted interface design and take our time to make nice things. But software moved out of the nerd space and just became another place for the MBA’s to colonize. Now it’s all KPI’s and standups and soulless flat minimum viable products that never get improved.
