Design from the realm of open-source

Tech: Open Source Designers, Community

Getting into an open-source can be quite intimidating as a designer. It's not something that you can just wake up in the morning and start doing if you've never been a designer before. From a high level, let's "design" our first open-source project, complete with quick methodologies, tips, tricks, and some extra bits.

This talk was crafted with the aim of lowering some of the barriers for designers to contribute to open-source, How designers can actually contribute to open-source "live-designing" and providing some direction and resources to help people get started with contributing to design from a realm of open-source.

Key Take-Away:
- How not to be intimidated as a designer in open-source.
- Tools to enable designers to contribute to OSS.
- How to inspect design.
- Designing and implementing a feature to production as a designer on an enterprise product.
- Getting started with designing for designers.
- Building or joining a Designers Community as a Designer contributing to open-source.

When you think there is no time for learning

Talk: Time Management

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in your career? Do you constantly feel like you don’t have time to work on your projects? Do you want to learn something new, expand your knowledge, develop yourself and be the best you can be?

In this session, I am going to share my story on how I started coding, how I make time to work on side projects and how you can grow and advance in your career. After this talk, I hope you ‘ll be inspired to work smarter, make new habits and continue pushing yourself even when things fall apart.

I will present some helpful tips about self-motivation, time-management, setting priorities and goals, staying organized, believing in yourself and keeping a balance between your career and personal life. To do so, I’m going to use as an example my personal story of how I got into the tech world, the struggles, the rejections, what I’ve learned and how you can succeed by being consistent and determined. Additionally, in this session, we are going to talk about building the habit of coding and the benefits of it. We are going to explore ways of finding mentors in your job and outside of it and also expanding your social network.

This talk is not only about getting better at your 9 to 5 job but also about developing yourself."
