AARON'S PATTERN LIBRARY
STREAMLINE THE DEVELOPMENT PIPELINE WITH PATTERN LIBRARIES
DESIGN CHALLENGE:
Streamlined the development process and reduce QA drag/bugs by developing a reusable component library that provides instructions (and best practices) for the proper development of all front-end design patterns. The pattern library is used by Aaron’s entire ecosystem, standardizing designs across all products.
SOLUTION:
In this project, my role expanded beyond the box of UX design–from direct interactions with senior leadership to managing a variety of teams involved in execution and delivery–I led a multi-disciplinary team in the development of their proprietary software interfaces.
The approach taken was to define UX design standards (including process improvements, communication methods, and templates used by the team), and to develop cohesive approaches to design solutions by creating a reusable component library.
After doing preliminary studies to optimize function tasks and flows, we cataloged a list of reusable components that could be standardized across functions and screens (such as grids, tables, forms, etc.), designing their layouts, functions, and other requirements. Those patterns were then organized into an online library that could be accessed by a variety of teams for guidelines during every stage of development.
Unfortunately, I cannot publicly display detailed screens, as they contain the organization’s proprietary information. Please contact me if you would like to discuss.
