Lessons Learned from Teaching Design Studio to UX/UI Professionals with Marco Piccolino | #QtWS23

Abstract: Usually, when designers get to know Design Studio, they are both amazed and terrified. This wonderful package promises to give full control and speed in creating user interfaces ready for shipping. However, compared to familiar UI design tools, it comes with different metaphors, different concepts, and different workflows. As one of the longest-standing trainers for Design Studio, both as FlowTeal and for The Qt Company, I'll share a few insights gathered by teaching both designers and developers. Learning from designers’ needs and habits will be key to the widespread adoption of this revolutionary product. About the Speaker: Marco Piccolino is a Studio Training Expert and HMI Architect at teal.blue. He’s been developing multi-platform Qt/QML applications for mobile, embedded, and desktop since 2015.
