I'm a UX Designer, so these are my UX Designer tools.

(Also, there may be good things in Category: Behavior you want to read.)

User Experience Design


Accessibility


Animation


Color

See Tools and Colorblindness for more information on color.

Perceiving Color

  • Does Your Language Shape How You Think? by Guy Deutscher in the New York Times magazine discusses, among other things, how languages that don't differentiate between green and blue result in people who have more trouble perceiving difference between them.
  • Colour Assignment - Associations by Joe Hallock outlines different ways that we associate color with emotions and ideas, primarily from the view of an American / Western audience.
  • The XKCD Color Survey Results is a sometimes-hilarious look at a survey on colors that the author of the XKCD comic did. It's very revealing about how we perceive color and how much (or how little) patience we have for thinking about it.

Using Color


Conferences

  • Confs.tech is a full list of conferences in the tech industry.


Content Strategy

See Category: Writing for writing-specific tools.


HTML, CSS, and JavaScript


Data Visualization

Design Systems


Examples


Freelancing/Consulting

  • The Pause Clause by NGenWorks discusses an entry in their contracts that essentially says if the client is more than 10 days late with a deliverable, the project goes on hold until the client responds.


Gender issues in Design


Navigation

  • Great Alternatives to Hamburger Menus by UX Planet lists a number of menu alternatives for global and local navigation when you don't want your mobile experience stuffed in a hamburger menu.

Tools
