A shorthand for designing UI flows
Flows are just as important to good interfaces as individual screens are. Customers don’t land on screens from out of nowhere. Specific sequences of actions lead customers through your app as they try to accomplish their tasks. But as important as they are, flows are hard to communicate during the design process. Drawing out every state of a flow is too time-consuming. And drawings become instantl
The tool we built to keep everyone in the loop at Basecamp
From teams to individuals, we aimed for a straightforward, consistent system to communicate the occasional, the week-to-week, and the day-to-day to everyone across our company. No matter the company, once you reach a certain size — and it’s not very big — you begin to have communication challenges. There are dozens of challenges, but for this article I’d like to focus on this one: Keeping people a
Is group chat making you sweat?
Is this you? Are you making other feel like this? Group chat is like being in an all-day meeting with random participants and no agenda. In 2006 we launched Campfire, the first modern SAAS group chat and messaging tool for business. Since then, quite a few business chat and messaging tools like Hipchat, Flowdock, Slack and others have sprung up. And we’ve since rolled group chat and instant messag
Testing like the TSA
When developers first discover the wonders of test-driven development, it’s like gaining entrance to a new and better world with less stress and insecurity. It truly is a wonderful experience well worth celebrating. But internalizing the benefits of testing is only the first step to enlightenment. Knowing what not to test is the harder part of the lesson. While as a beginner you shouldn’t worry mu
Design Decisions: Basecamp for iPhone iOS 7
Today iOS 7 arrived and along with it our freshly updated Basecamp for iPhone. Perhaps there were some existing apps that just worked on the beta releases of iOS 7 but Basecamp wasn’t among them. And while we knew some under-the-hood changes would be required to support the new system, we didn’t anticipate changes to the design or how much we’d like them. Here’s a quick before and after look at wh
Easy retina-ready images using SCSS
If you’re interested in adding retina image support to your website or app and you happen to be using SCSS, here’s a handy shortcut that makes it dead simple. Just include this SCSS mixin in any rule and specify the high resolution image’s path and device independent pixel dimensions. Here’s an example: div.logo { background: url("logo.png") no-repeat; @include image-2x("logo2x.png", 100px, 25px);
A couple of interesting UI techniques at Flickr
1) Interesting use of unicode characters for the UI on Flickr: That triangle up top is actually two triangle characters side-by-side. Sucks that we still have to resort to such hacks for such a common UI shape — but this is a smart solution. 2) Also interesting is this inline tour of the new photo pages. Rollover a number and bubbles pop up to show you what’s fresh for that section.
