Abstract

We’re designing professional tools, so it’s trite to say that our software needs to be fast, powerful, and intuitive. We need to build seamless, integrated experiences for a growing number of tasks and users. As our platforms grow in functionality and maturity, this gets harder.

I’ll talk about some techniques we can use to build and grow interconnected experiences and platforms for power users.
