It's Time for a DevTools for Designers
Every proposal like this seems to assume that the web is basically the same as paper, and therefore should have tools that work like print tools. And this may be true for many marketing sites, which are effectively posters with download buttons. This is probably the kind of thing the author has in mind, because his wishlist doesn't include anything to do with interactivity, video, sound, etc.<p>But these are the best parts of the web! As much as designers want to believe it, a web app isn't actually a series of pictures. There are far more possibilities than with paper, and you remove all of those possibilities when you insist on designing like it's paper.<p>Disclaimer: I am a designer who codes.
