Fix It or Ditch It? The Classic Developer Dilemma

Recently working on my new mobile app Loopzzz, I encountered a small problem: my previous and next buttons which allowed to change audio tracks from the notification (and were working perfectly fine last time I tested them) were not functional any longer.

Design for app-makers, part 1: App name & logo

Many of the app-makers and developer I work with are engineers, and they tend to focus on the technological side of their product. Architecture, database, features, APIs, etc. In the end they are happy and proud to see their product working, but a bit ashamed of how it looks. As a UX/UI Designer with 20+ year experience and an app-maker myself, here is my ultimate checklist and a bit of advice to build an app that works AND looks cool.

From learning to code with Flutter and dart to how ChatGPT and Copilot helped me through that journey, here is a summary of how it went.

After TechNet @Bangkok

I am just back from the TechNet-21 conference, held in Bangkok, Thailand, from the 11th to the 15th May. As a reminder, this conference is organized by the World Health Organization and Unicef, and gathers immunization experts from all around the world to think and discuss about vaccination best practices and policy. I had the chance of being invited to this event in order to present a project, and gather feedbacks from present stakeholders. After a few months of preparation, we came up with a prototype and interactive wireframes.
