Design Concepts with Code

Design Concepts with Code: A Developer Approach is the first book to tackle basic graphic design issues like line, color, symmetry, balance for an audience of sophisticated programmers. Great developers often create products that work well, look bad, and never reach their potential audience. Developers can design prototypes and products by considering and implementing a reasonable set of design axioms that hold their strength over time. In Design Concepts with Code: A Developer Approach, design concepts including interface design, design principles, design elements, layout, content and typography, and color are presented with code including XML, XHTML/CSS, SVG, XSLT, XSL-FO, and scripting languages. This text offers design concepts, examples, projects, and code (no apps) to quickly enhance client and user interpretation and appreciation of web-based products.
