Designers shouldn't have to bother with learning HTML or CSS
 |
I received a
submission today from a web designer who is, in his words "sick of code". He would like the web programmers and web developers out there to know a little secret "the future of web design is design" and that coders should stick to writing code that he can slide into his designs "without knowing all about tags or code". My interpretation from this rant is that Polomo does not want to have to learn HTML or CSS. He's a designer, and knowing those things just hinders his creative process.
What do you think? Does learning the back end of web design (HTML and CSS) hinder a designer's creative process? Or does it help? Do you find developers as annoying as Polomo does? And what about the developers out there? Do you agree? Should you be focused only on the code and making sure it slides into a designer's vision with no hiccups? Or do you find web designers just as annoying?
Thanks, Polomo, for taking the time to post your feelings. It should make for interesting debate.
