I am building a website and purchased a React JS compatible theme from envato marketplace. In the package I didn't not received any figma/sketch files and my UI team is asking for them.

Is there a way to convert source code to Figma?

My background : 
Work
------
2.6 years of Work experience as Software Engineer in WITCH Company handling the middleware and some devops operations in my project.

Education 
-----------
B.tech in CSE from a Tier 2 college 
I started my career a bit late compared to my peers because of some bad decisions in past but I was able to get back on track and gain industry experience . Since past year I realized I haven't grown much career wise . I had plans to pursue Masters earlier but postponed it because of COVID and I realised it's better to gain some experience before going abroad. 
I didn't want to pursue a traditional CS Masters degree since I wanted to explore and learn something new . That's when I came across HCI and over the months my interest in it has deepened . I did take some courses related to HCI and UX to get better understanding. 

Skills
------
I have fairly decent front end skillset with good basics in HTML, CSS , JavaScript and ReactJS . Started learning Figma recently

I want to land jobs as UX Engineer where I do a bit of design and coding . I have got admits from good universities which have specialization in HCI . I wanted to know if it's a good decision to go for masters now and pursue this field .

Is Masters in HCI worth it ?

So iam working as a designer In a company without much deisgn maturity. My development team have  decided to use angular material and no any other ui frameworks . But I can't find any figma kits from angular material 2. Whatever that exist is of material 3 that too incomplete version.

Now how do I solve this.?material  don't give any kits for web apps. Even in guidline it's for mobile and  tablets.

What should I do ? Should I create a deisgn system looking angular material, but that would require lot ifbtime right?

Roadblock don't know how to solve this!

UX/UI Designer

Off late, the frontend engineering at Razorpay has become more of a data entry job. The design system (god knows how many years it will take to be completely ready) is restricting both the devs and the designers a LOT. Designers are literally fed up with being dictated to design things only in a particular way (limiting even animations, font-size, choice of italics v/s bold). There was even a long 2 month discussion to get font size for a component to support higher value, if you honestly want to know. 

The so called core team has been developing blade since God knows when. Agree that they've done a great work with tokens and other stuff, but it seems that by the time it's ready, it'll already be outdated design wise (suxs).

So, any other devs, all they have to do is follows.

1. Open Figma
2. See if the component in Figma is supported by Blade.
3. If yes, then see if our designer has by mistake used any font-size, color, margin or spacing not supported by Blade.
4. If yes, start a thread between everyone and give them a month to come to a resolution (Blade team always retaliates like it's a personal attack)
5. Eventually end up using your own component to save time and move fast.
6. Explain to your manager's manager's manager why you can't use Blade. (they've funded it for 2 years and no dev likes it, so they push it from top)


If your company has some interesting approach to this, please add in the comments.

Ah this is why I hang around here. Thanks for the sauce

Frontend Engineer

I recently redesigned a software for my company, and it has successfully gone live in production. However, I want to ensure its quality by comparing it against the original designs to identify any discrepancies, such as issues with padding, color, text, or spacing.

What methods or software tools do you recommend for effectively comparing live software with its design? Are there any best practices or alternative approaches I should consider? Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

How can I compare a live website/software with its design to identify bugs?

Product Designer

What if a company, in the first round of interview, (even before a telephonic conversation) gives you a UI wireframe which is basically the homepage of their app. And then ask you to send them in .zip only. 
Do they really want free development or just checking the skills 🤔

Seems like they've mutually agreed on not going through with the deal.

What do you think?

Figma + Adobe's $20Bn Deal Not Going Through

Product Owner

Hey I'm working as a full-time graphic designer for the last 2 years and now I want to explore Product design. So I want to know how much should I expect from the recruiters to offer me  as a fresher with good knowledge of figma.

What will be the expected salary for a fresher UI designer who's already working as a graphic designer for the last 2 years?

Graphic Designer

After completing the initial round, I was given only 48 hours to finish a substantial portion of the assignment, which was nearly half of the app. Despite this, I managed to complete it outside of office hours during the week. 

A week after submitting the assignment, I reached out to inquire about the status, and the HR informed me that the team didn't find the assignment up to their expectations. 

When I checked the list of shared profiles within Figma file, I noticed that only my profile was listed. Upon asking the HR about this discrepancy, she mentioned that the team checked the assignment through figma file and they had forwarded my profile to another team (POD) for consideration. 

There is one more company that shortlisted my assignment and then asked for my expectation and eventually ghosted. 

This situation feels frustrating and unfair.

Whats with these assignments?

Do u need to be natural  gifted to be a product designer?

I have an idea that I want to work on, it’s not unique but solves a real world problem. 

While I can sort out the end to end implementation from engineer side of things, currently struggling with “designers block” (not sure if that’s a thing, but you get my point).

I have very basic design, but i feel a good design can bring the app to life. Here are my thoughts- 


- Tried looking on dribble but mostly people leave one or two screenshots and that too without the figma/prototype. 

- where do you guys take inspiration from while working on any new idea?

- Considering I want to hire someone, what would be an approximate cost of an app of 8-10 screens. (apologies in advance, this might sound stupid but not sure how designer charge)

- Considering I want to learn/improve stuff, where do i start? have worked with figma and xd in past, can draft an average UI.

Design folks of grapevine, where do i find some good prototypes?
