Cultivating Creativity in UI/UX Design
UI/UX designers constantly navigate the challenge of creating innovative, standout designs while keeping users oriented and meeting client needs. We tackle these challenges by addressing design fixation, concept drift, and other obstacles to help UI/UX designers find their creativity flow.
Empowering Open Source Software Communities
Open-source software (OSS) thrives on community collaboration, yet the dynamics of discussion often dominated by a small group of contributors. Our research unpacks how developers, designers, and end-users interact in OSS projects and aims to make OSS communities more inclusive and user-centered.
