Nobody has time to build a design system so nobody builds a design system so the design system stays frozen at whatever the intern shipped in 2019.

Design teams are being asked to move faster than ever. More screens, more variants, more expectations. Same timelines.

This session breaks down where AI actually saves time in experience design, what to automate, and how to keep quality high while moving fast.

My 1.0 version of my Chrome extension for batch screenshot just got approved

I built it for my own needs but maybe other people like it. I wanted to automate design audit and UI QA for products I was working on. I wanted to maintain a list of URLs locally or a shared, hosted, list and just be able to automatedly screenshot them all full page at multiple different widths.

Have a go and if it's useful (or not) for you I'd love to hear about it

Разрабатываем чек-лист самопроверки макетов: подход, ошибки и результаты

Когда впервые появилась идея чек-листа самопроверки макетов, я воспринял её как очередную бюрократию. Ещё один документ, который никто не будет читать. Казалось, и без него всё под контролем: опытная команда и выстроенные процессы. Но когда дизайнеров в моём направлении стало не семь, а пятнадцать, а количество продуктов увеличилось в три раза, стало ясно, что без простого инструмента контроля качества мы утонем в хаосе. Привет, Хабр! Я Илья Гордеев, руковожу командой дизайна внутренних продуктов в X5 Tech. В этой статье расскажу, как мы создали чек-лист самопроверки, какие сложности прошли при внедрении и как он помогает экономить время на ревью, держать планку дизайнерам, а команде работать быстрее и чище.

Non-negotiables are not about ego.

When I insist on pixel-perfect alignment or specific hex codes, it isn't because I am obsessive. It's because if we don't care about the small things, the customer won't trust us with the big things.

RE: https://edeverett.co.uk/2025/11/designops-before-ai-design-tools/

One thing that consistently bothers me is AI tools being seen as key to 'speeding up' the design process. But UI design is very rarely the bottleneck in the delivery process, especially if have a functioning design system.

Invest in good design ops and processes then look at how to improve the delivery process. Don't just use AI tools for the sake of AI, and especially don't use them to accelerate poor processes!

If your team doesn’t have a dedicated ops leader, you're bleeding efficiency.

The growth curve of teams hinges less on more designers or developers and more on better processes. That’s the promise of delivery and operations.

Who owns the operational muscle behind your team?

That request for a design mockup could have been a properly-written acceptance criteria. #designops #bdd

RE: https://edeverett.co.uk/2025/11/the-3rd-debt-team/

Tech debt, design debt ... *team debt*?

Is that a useful concept? Teams can only do so much JFDI or MVP scrambling before they lose good team muscle memory and retreat to ineffecient, fractious silos
