I would like to help an open-source project with UI design and UX design. I have over 18 years of experience in the field and have worked with desktop and mobile software on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and Windows Mobile/Windows Phone. Unfortunately my knowledge of Linux is very limited but I’m eager to learn. Could you help me find a project? @thelinuxEXP @linux @macrumors @windowscentral @windows
This. KDE community seems to be very friendly and Plasma could really need a little polishing. Especially the default Breeze theme.
@coolmojo thanks, I’ll check it out!
I’m also a UI/UX designer who’d love to help out! 🥸
These are really Linux, but these Android projects need some UX assistance if you’re at all familiar with Material Design.

This is a great project as well that could use some guidance on UI https://github.com/nightscout/AndroidAPS
I’m pretty familiar with Material. Wondering how (specifically) I can help. I’ve used and followed some open source projects but I’ve never contributed.
Same. We should form a collective lol. (I have some dev experience also)
Not sure if it helps but https://lemmy.tf/comment/1086993
I’m interested in writing a fediverse app for tracking and sharing outdoor activity data, like all trails or Strava, using openstreetmap, and I’d need a lot of help with designs for both a tool for drawing and updating trails (for maintainers of a server) as well as an end-user facing app for tracking and sharing activities. I’m planning on applying for a grant to do the development, and drawings go a long way towards getting grants. Lemme know if you’re interested, and we can spin up a Matrix server (I think that’s the fediverse discord) to talk about it informally.
edit: I wrote a few words about what I’m thinking: https://dougs-digital-garden.netlify.app/notes/trailsapp/
@CombatWombatEsq Sure thing! I’m new to the fediverse and just learned about matrix a couple of hours ago, so please let me know how to proceed.
Me too! I tried my hand at creating a Matrix room that anyone that is interested can join: https://matrix.to/#/#trailsapp:matrix.org . Let yourself in and we can come up with how we want to proceed together!
@CombatWombatEsq joined :)
@fernandolins @thelinuxEXP @linux @macrumors @windowscentral @windows please lend a hand to https://yarn.social. This is their flagship instance: https://twtxt.net/. Their main developer is legally blind, and truly could use help with UI/UX.
Be sure to follow KDE human interface guidelines also make sure your designs are compatible with themes and are easy to achieve using the native UI elements otherwise they will probably politely ignore your suggestions
Improve the home page of Lemmy… I think the buttons on top take too much screen space
You could help us at Organic Maps. We are in need of UI designers. Contact me or biodranik on Matrix if you are interested: @g_mate8:matrix.org and @biodranik:matrix.org
Organic Maps is so nice, thank you for all your hard work 🥰.

I think that one of the projects that needs it the most right now, a complete overhaul, is FreeCAD.
It needs a good, competent UX designer. Nothing has changed UX wise for like 6 years. Everyone who begins to use it quits saying that it is the biggest hurdle.
It is literally the only real classical FOSS CAD software and they have no UX designer as far as I know.
@JustEnoughDucks thanks for pointing that project out, my husband is a heavy CAD user so he could help test it too. I’ll look into it, see how I could help.
