Some UX topics are more important to designers than others. I want to discover what those are to better meet your needs. My articles should help you with your work and help you become a better designer. Therefore, what article topics would you pay to learn about?
Rather than conducting a poll, I’d like to offer an open discussion on what content you think I can publish to meet the current demand and your needs. Ideally, I’d like to find a consensus on what most of you want.
The main topic for me is how to best organize complex information structures. Imagine for example a place with several buildings, with several floors, with several rooms, with several categories of objects inside like cabinets with shelves, filled with several categories of devices ... You need a CRUD for each level. The user should always know where he is in the hierarchy. You should provide a clear navigation through all levels, supported by a good search function. I'm looking for a good template that could be a base to apply to those complex structures.
Higher-level design rather than individual components. Like search forms, lists and actions, and so on. Even with perfect components, the overall view/page layout can still be disastrous.
I think that "pay to learn" will stop to be a thing at some point... I never payed for any of my learning; Thanks Internet! and self-learning power. Success!
I don't always have time to keep up to date with every article. I get a lot of newsletters. What would help me is a taxonomy or hierarchy that points me to clusters of articles on specific UX topics. Forms, Navigation, AI, Figma Tools, Plugins, Etc. When I'm stuck I need to be able to find resources quickly. I already pay $12 a month so I'm not necessarily looking for more things for you to charge me for, however, I would say a nominal fee for live workshops with speakers and Q&A sessions would be something I would pay for, albeit I think it should be affordable like going to see a movie or a Latte price. You already do a great job of surfacing great content, so you have a great base to work with. Another idea that I have found myself wishing existed was Figma Tutors available by the hour. Often times I know the basics of what I'm doing but haven't mastered the full set of Figma tools available to make efficiencies in my work. If I could schedule an hour with someone who is an expert, i would happily pay for that. There are still areas of Figma where it behaves in ways that aren't apparent to me. My 2 cents. Thank you for all you do!
• Product design for complex data and features such as account information, application progress, application flow, answer reviews and application scoring. (not dashboard graphs and user list)
The challenges that I face a lot is based around product design and dealing with complex data and features that need to be prioritized and layed out in a manner that reduces visual noise, maintains context and ensures an enjoyable user experience. This often mean trying to convince team members, stakeholders and founders that everything doesn't have to be visible but discoverable. Expose the primary features and make secondary or advanced features discoverable. Give user the high level data and expose detail data in other manners than are easy to consume.
Would be great to see how you might take on a very complex feature and data rich product and redesign it to reduce cognitive load and visual noise.
I'd like to see articles and examples on building a better search feature with filters for both desktop and mobile.
