@nebby @jeroenpraat I'm guessing you're not the only one ;) That subreddit has some good resources, although not too many participants yet. -

@nebby @jeroenpraat back-end and UI are totally different components that require totally different skillsets. -

@jeroenpraat @nebby To hardcore coders, GUI is a waste of resources, and a half-ass GUI is often added to solid code as an afterthought. -

@jeroenpraat @nebby IMHO back-end dev and GUI design require separate teams with their own design processes and workflows -

@jeroenpraat @nebby one example of a free code project designed for a great UX from the get-go is #Loomio (#AGPL), a decision-making tool -

@jeroenpraat @nebby some of the Loomio founders had never coded before they joined the project, which I think helped the UX lot. -
