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.
In time for the celebration of International Women’s Day today – we celebrate women’s achievements, we call for greater equality. #MakeItHappen
It is good news that Philippines ranks number 9 out of 142 countries in the Global Gender Gap Report 2014. This means that the gap between genders in many aspects of our economy is getting slimmer.
And what is it to us as a country?
People and their talents are two of the core drivers of sustainable, long-term economic growth. If half of these talents are underdeveloped or underutilized, the economy will never grow as it could. Multiple studies have shown that healthy and educated women are more likely to have healthier and more educated children, creating a positive, virtuous cycle for the broader population. Research also shows the benefits of gender equality in politics: when women are more involved in decision-making, they make different decisions—not necessarily better or worse—but decisions that reflect the needs of more members of society.
