I would like to help an open-source project with UI design and UX design. I have over 18 years of experience in the field and have worked with desktop and mobile software on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and Windows Mobile/Windows Phone. Unfortunately my knowledge of Linux is very limited but I'm eager to learn. Could you help me find a project? @thelinuxEXP@linux@macrumors@windowscentral@windows
I’m pretty familiar with Material. Wondering how (specifically) I can help. I’ve used and followed some open source projects but I’ve never contributed.
I'm interested in writing a fediverse app for tracking and sharing outdoor activity data, like all trails or Strava, using openstreetmap, and I'd need a lot of help with designs for both a tool for drawing and updating trails (for maintainers of a server) as well as an end-user facing app for tracking and sharing activities. I'm planning on applying for a grant to do the development, and drawings go a long way towards getting grants. Lemme know if you're interested, and we can spin up a Matrix server (I think that's the fediverse discord) to talk about it informally.
Me too! I tried my hand at creating a Matrix room that anyone that is interested can join: https://matrix.to/#/#trailsapp:matrix.org . Let yourself in and we can come up with how we want to proceed together!
Be sure to follow KDE human interface guidelines also make sure your designs are compatible with themes and are easy to achieve using the native UI elements otherwise they will probably politely ignore your suggestions
You could help us at Organic Maps. We are in need of UI designers. Contact me or biodranik on Matrix if you are interested: @g_mate8:matrix.org and @biodranik:matrix.org
I think that one of the projects that needs it the most right now, a complete overhaul, is FreeCAD.
It needs a good, competent UX designer. Nothing has changed UX wise for like 6 years. Everyone who begins to use it quits saying that it is the biggest hurdle.
It is literally the only real classical FOSS CAD software and they have no UX designer as far as I know.
@JustEnoughDucks thanks for pointing that project out, my husband is a heavy CAD user so he could help test it too. I'll look into it, see how I could help.
