This week on the DockYard Blog, we talked about everything from how to know when it’s time to redesign your app or website to how artificial intelligence accelerates design at DockYard. Click through the titles below to read through what you might have missed.
How to Incorporate Emerging Technologies Without Overhauling Your Existing Systems
- With the right approach, you can future-proof your digital product by incorporating new technologies without disrupting your core infrastructure.
- Companies that embrace new technology gain an edge over competitors stuck with outdated systems.
- Emerging technologies can elevate your digital product, but reckless adoption can lead to costly failures.
When to Redesign Your Website or App: Key Signals to Watch For
- Redesigning a website or app is a significant investment, so it’s crucial to recognize the right signals before taking action.
- Design trends evolve, and while you don’t need to chase every new aesthetic, a stale interface can create a poor first impression.
- If you’re seeing declining engagement, poor mobile performance, slow load times, or security issues, it’s time to take action.
How AI Accelerates Design at DockYard
- At DockYard, our design and development teams have been applying a new set of tools to how we craft custom software, and it’s transformed the way we work and communicate.
- The biggest impact on our design process is apparent in two places so far: business development and early-stage design outputs.
- Once an engagement is underway, AI-powered design tools help us articulate project goals and strategic directions, and clearly communicate with teams and stakeholders.
Avoiding Technical Debt: Best Practices for Sustainable Digital Development
- While launching quickly is important, cutting corners in development can lead to technical debt: the hidden cost of poorly written, rushed, or outdated code.
- If left unchecked, technical debt slows down innovation, increases maintenance costs, and makes scaling difficult.
- With the right practices, you can minimize technical debt and build a sustainable, future-proof digital product.
