Drupal for Designers

Dani Nordin on what you need to know

Dani Nordin (@danigrrl) is an O’Reilly author (Drupal for Designers) and UX designer.

We sat down recently to catch up on her current projects and her predictions for the future of Drupal design. She shared some best practices for designing, her experiences with a large-scale academic project, and what criteria goes into the Design 4 Drupal Boston event.
