"where does soul come from?" it doesn't! it's always there! just gtfo of the way and let it flow

I have watching you videos for last 5-6 months, your channel is goldmine man, the question you ask is amazing, and all the guest are Rockstar - thanks for sharing knowledge.

Jason is an actual designer

Great conversation. Love the way Jason thinks, especially in a world of tech that generally gravitates towards soullessness and sameness. Got a new fan from me.

I love that the push for designers to code is more common to talk about nowadays. I started out as a UX Designer but wanted to learn how to bring my ideas to life. I started out using no-code tools like Webflow and eventually made the dive into coding. A certain feeling arises when you see your idea implemented/know the technicalities that go into implementation. Now that I've been building things, it's been a slow/steady journey and I'm glad I decided to go in. I appreciate that you post content like this :)

at least he has the AI leathery jacked!

Really enjoyed this convo, I downloaded Dot and was chatting away and it floored me. I'm excited to keep using it, it feels very unique

Fantastic episode!! I feel like I could listen to y’all talk about this all day 😂 I’m also enrolled in the course - soooooo excited for it!

Absolutely great discussion! So much abt how I also see the future of our craft.

I love raycast!

crafting and building software can be - and is becoming - an aspect of the (product) design work, but certainly not its totality. to me, the this upcoming design engineer role is a call out for front-end developers who dont care for user experience/interface design and for designers that live too much in the figma file and dont talk to developers. it means that the bar has raised and the so called handoff process is going to require much more attention and interdisciplinary knowledge on both parties.

Fascinating. I heard him at Config and he didn’t get into the deeper “why” of this. Love his thinking. What is meaningful??

I am only 15 minutes into this discussion (and 30 years into my design engineering career) but had to pause to thank you guys for this video. It is a Saturday morning and I just KNOW the rest of the chat is going to be inspirational. Right, ... back to watch the rest! 🙂👍

Sério Mari Cast PER FEI TA

So much insight here - this is exactly the type of deep-dive interview I was looking for, on an under-addressed topic! The “ah-ha” moments you both described in the design-dev journey are spot on (as someone going through it myself, also on my 3rd or 4th attempt). Having the idea of a real app to design and build from 0 to 1 has changed my whole mindset while slogging through JS. Ridd, you asked a question about design engineering becoming more “mainstream” now - do you think this is still a strong differentiator for designers to have? Is it just a matter of time before this becomes the norm? Or maybe it’s more nuanced where everyone will have their own specialization, and it’s a matter of communicating that to prospective employers/clients?

Big time agree that even the best Figma prototype still has a certain level of abstraction from the real experience. I wish Figma was more focused on improving / removing this level of abstraction by enabling designers to build and launch more realistic experiences directly within the browser. They seem to be more focused on building AI tools to replace designers / enable anyone to be a designer than they are concerned with improving their prototyping tools. For instance, users still can't even type within a text field or fill out forms naturally. Figma is still a far ways off from enabling designers to create truly realistic prototypes.

great episode! i wonder what these new role 'design engineers' do when they are faced with scaling. i can definitely see a ux engineer working on making the interactions tight or designing components. but what about when you're faced with more complicated things like fast loading tables, or customizable forms like formly? and any of those third party ui components that may not exactly fit with your typical design/engineering workflow? do you use them? or is that relegated to more senior full stack engineers to implement those? asking from a large scale saas point of view, because i can personally code and style things like isolated components, but not implement 3rd party systems that interact with data on the backend as much - but those can still highly effect UI

i appreciate mariana's drive for learning and care for other people's perspective in their team. great interview! ✨

I've enrolled to the UI Engineering 101 course on Maven. Can't wait to begin learning! :)

omg i didn’t realise it was her because im so used to her twitter profile picture. omg that’s MOTHER!!!! also this podcast is the best thing on the planet for me rn. THANK YOU!

thanks for this episode! speaks so much to me. i am also a designer on a journey to make beautiful interfaces by learning how to code!

Great episode!

Your content is so good!

Thanks for sharing this! I love the advice on importance of sharing of work online. Actually this one this quite challenging wanna try to do cross post by Linkedin and X

Absolutely loved this interview and Mariana's practical advice. Absolutely love your channel! I religiously watch new interviews every week :)

Marina do you have Financial Aid for your Engineeering 101 Course?

This is the eps/discussion I was looking forward to the most! I started getting interested in React years ago because I dreamed of delving into Framer's guts and modifying components with code. But I was a junior then, Figma was all the rage and UX/UI/Product designers were still considered distinct roles. Every year since, I would hop on either Udemy, Codecademy and Coursera and trudge along the same basic webdev lessons with no set goal in mind, other than to reach the elusive state of 'design engineer', not actually knowing what their output resembled (back then, in the context of big corps, it seemed like they were mostly occupied building Design systems). The part in the discussion about the nature of roles shifting and the types of roles you feel compelled to apply to is also spot on. I've worked in an agency, a big SASS corp and a startup as a PD and neither experience expected me to produce a single line of code. But I also now understand that unless one considers the managerial route, there's a limit to how much you can grow as an IC if you don't seriously consider learning how to code~ Here's to not giving up 🥲🥂

This guy seems like a one Stive Jobs would hire straight away. Loved his outlook and thinking process.

Design engineer is an interesting role I just started hearing in the last months . The definition is not clear to me, is it a designer that an create components in react/swift something else?

User function over art. And no one has ever, EVER, in the histroy of history said "i like this new facebook change"

Listen, I do not say this often. This video was curated and made into a fountain of relevant and applicable knowledge. I have been fascinated with Janum's work for awhile now but his depth of experience seemed so out of my domain especially as I am an iOS developer as well. Then I found out this episode dropped. Thank you. This is definitely a corner stone in my experience and progression to the next level as an iOS developer.

This was great! Is there a way for us to get to the behind the scenes of these designers? Get a snapshot of what their figma files look like. How are they organised etc.

Fantastic video! Thank you!

I'm using React Native, but should I switch to iOS/Android native for smoother animations?

I'm literally using Cursor to learn Swift UI right now and thank you so much for the book of shaders thing its such a hack!!!

What a genius guy, I really loved the Arc animation as i use it daily and wonder who even come up with this and here i am listening to the genius himself 👌

Thanks for a great interview, shader is a block box for most iOS devs as well. But all those juicy animations of apple like airdrop / money transfer / siri makes me wanna learn it so bad :)

Great talk! Proud member of the rectangle world here! I feel like all designers are just RPG characters min-maxing different stats. I'd love to push on the craft side, but I've only ever worked for pre-PMF products so naturally, product strategy become a much greater focus for my character development. I'm now just starting to dabble with React at a very cursory level (out of curiosity), and I still haven't a clue what Janum's output even looks like. Start by moving a square on the screen? I can certainly do that with CSS transitions but I don't know how that'll translate to production code 😅... Most of the companies I've worked for have chosen React native as a framework instead of banking on the native approach with Swift/Kotlin; these series of interviews are definitely making me more aware of how your work environment shapes your trajectory as a designer and what to look for should one consider a move in the hopes of maxing other attributes. Cheers!

This episode is so good ! Janum did a fantastic job explaining the behind the scenes. Love it

I'm so glad that we are now in the era where we talk about the feel of a software or an app. After listening to this podcast, It's getting clear that the next decade is of creators who can design and engineer products/animation/prototypes etc.

This interview was incredibly inspiring and hit home on several occasions, especially when Ben shared the “Restaurant Menu” example, it truly lit up my perspective. Hope to see him again. Thanks Ridd for bringing these amazing guests ❤.

Brilliant episode. As a founding designer myself, I've found Ben's words particularly inspiring. I'm definitely going to follow Designer Fund much more closely from now on. And Dive Club, of course!

i thank you from the bottom of my heart to get these videos for us designers :) so inpirational :))))

Love these. Thank you so much for making them. Love your questions. Very inspiring

This is such an underrated series of interview in my opinion. I never heard about Ben. Until today. He is such an inspiring human being. Thanks for bringing him in the podcast.

You know it's gotta be a goat designer behind a great product, and I just realized it

I agree science fiction brings a lot of inspiration. They are aspirational concepts from a creative non-technical of how things are supposed to work if technology wasn’t a constraint.

This is such a goated episode!

the best channel to get inspiration for designers . this is what designers need to learn.. not just tools but how to actually think like a designer to solve real problems

The UA-cam algorithm blessed me to find this channel as a UX design major. These talks have all been treats for me. Looking forward to more and will ask questions when I get time.
