Wednesday App Clinic – Update


Over the last few weeks, we’ve enjoyed running 2 Wednesday App Clinics. Thanks to all those who sent us their apps and questions. It’s been a fantastic response! It certainly has helped us to see how you’ve been using the design guides and the components, and I hope it has helped you.

The first clinic started with an introduction and then feedback on a Brad Wells’ Blackjack app, and Marcin Leśniowski’s Skydiving logbook app. The second clinic included Michael Zanetti’s GetMeWheels, Daniel Beck’s RamSamSam RSS reader and Szymon Waliczek’s uShopper shopping list apps.

If you would like feedback or to ask a particular question (and to see your app featured!) send a screenshot or link to design@canonical.com before 1pm UTC on Tuesday.

To watch previous clinics go to the Ubuntu OnAir youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/UbuntuOnAir.

The clinics are on Wednesdays at 1pm UTC at http://ubuntuonair.com/ . Join us (or watch later) to find out more.

Design Ubuntu tech blog

Open source thrives on engineering-driven processes. Fast feedback loops, terminal tools, Git workflows: they’re the lifeblood of how we build software in the open. But for software to truly excel, we need to create user experiences that empower people to use them. I wanted to bring this conversation into the spotlight as part of Canonica ...
