Should designers code?
Yes, of course, you should seek it, but we should also focus on everything that helps us become better..
Yes—code, illustrate, take photos, make videos, write, play, create with your hands… grow. Essentially, everything a project demands, you should have a working understanding of how to do it. I’m not suggesting you need to master every skill at a professional level; we have talented friends for that. But you should be able to engage with professionals, speak their language, and understand the process deeply enough to ensure things are executed just as you envisioned.
So, sharpen your skills, push beyond the boundaries of your job description, and explore new territories. This is what you were made to do. This is why we’re here.
