• Free the Developers

  by Will Hardy

  Off-the-shelf Django apps are great for system admins and users. But what true, perfection-loving Django developers really want are domain-specific frameworks, and they need them to be a little less opinionated. By offering a flexible framework, tailored to your domain of expertise, you're offering so much more to the fussy Django developer. I'll discuss some ways of doing this and open the floor up to contributions from the public.

• Design for Developers: Making Your Frontend Suck Less

  by Idan Gazit

  Good design is not some magical creative voodoo process—it is a discipline, like good software development. There's nothing preventing developers from learning the basics of this aspect of web development, and yet many programmer-designed interfaces look like yesterday's breakfast.

  This talk covers the fundamentals of designing for the web, with practical advice you can apply to make your next programmer-ware interface clean and usable, even if you "don't do frontend." Covers the basics of graphic design, layout, color, and typography, and has a heavy focus on resources you can use to help you make good design decisions.
