Join us on the last Wednesday of every month for Triad Dev Connect, an evening built for developers, UX/UI professionals, and digital creatives in the Triad, hosted by YohDev and Flywheel Coworking. Whether you’re writing code, designing interfaces, or helping shape user experiences, this is a space to connect, learn, and build together.
Stay tuned for more info on this month's speaker!
Topic: The Design-Driven Software Agency . Join speaker Marié Whittington as she unpacks what happens when design leads the way in software development. We’ll look at how design bridges the gap between developers and users, why advocating for the user matters, and how design-driven choices create better products and stronger teams.
