Someone’s lurking in the shadows in the alley – watching Sketch and InVision pass the ball between them back and forth, forth and back.

Lo and behold! Adobe comes out snatching the ball and slam-dunkin’ it in the ring.

While it rains shattered fiberglass, it introduces Comet.

A whole new experience in user experience design.

Design and prototype websites and mobile apps faster than ever with Project Comet, the first all-in-one solution for UX designers. Coming in early 2016 from Adobe.

Currently, these are my default plugins whenever I would install WordPress:

• Akismet
• Jetpack
• Limit Login Attempts

Update: 8 April
As I am looking for ways to concatenate CSS and JS files in the theme that I’m working on (Applicator), I tested several PHP scripts and WP plugins.

And the only thing simple enough to work is Better WordPress Minify.

This is just what we need for government websites in Philippines – web design standards:

Once and for all, stop thinking too much when you write. Pages and pages of ideas pass you by as you think too much. Write, just write.

Let this be a sketchpad wherein raw ideas – instead of getting drawn – get serialized into a whole that might make sense. To you, to me and anyone in between.

My name is Dys – the lead designer of DYS design studio. Our power is in designing user interfaces for the web.

In here you might find stuff about the design process, front-end development and WordPress. And some of the tools that I use to make things happen.

Please bear with me if everything in here is a work in progress, open to debate and unassuming & unapologetic at the same time.

UX Week, SF

Being here in SF opens up my mind towards wanting a higher goal for my career. Do I really want to be in a developed country? What’s the higher goal? Well it’s more of for myself really – to worry less about the mundane things that the government fails to take care of like infrastructure and other stuff. I can’t pinpoint exactly. It’s like I know that I’m most needed in my country but it’s true that it’s a long way to go. I want my family not to experience these hardships. I don’t know. I need to talk to my partner about this.
