C’est intéressant même si je ne suis pas d’accord avec le démarrage de sa réflexion sur le faire qu’un wireframe c’est forcément un dessin statique (et donc dans son argumentation pas responsive etc).

Du coup c’est déjà un peu ce qu’on fait, puisqu’on commence par mettre des blocs de contenu (faux ou plus précis suivant ce qu’on connait comme détails à ce moment) dans du HTML. Puis on style ce HTML en bloc que l’on place petit à petit. On pourrait aller plus loin et vraiment commencer par TOUT mettre en détail et faire valider cette liste de choses à placer dans un ordre de priorité, puis le styler une fois que c’est validé seulement.

Mais du coup ses documents de priorités il continue de les faire en pixels, alors qu’on peut parfaitement les faire en HTML directement (et donc au départ c’est mobile first tant qu’on n’a rien stylé oui mais on PEUT les styler ensuite, ce qui n’est pas possible avec un truc statique).

Bref, ça va dans le bon sens, mais je pense qu’il faut continuer à améliorer dans la voix de partir directement sur le HTML, jamais depuis un outil statique : aussi puissant qu’ils peuvent être (sketch etc), je trouve que c’est obsolète, des outils du passé, pour la majorité des cas.

Alors je suis tout à fait d’accord, je viens encore d’en faire les frais ^^ Les outils comme sketch ou autre enferme dans une reflexion « pixel perfect » qui effectivement viens du print ou tout du moins tendrait a y ressembler.

Le problème c’est aussi les gens qui utilisent le logiciel. Je retrouve les mêmes erreurs de conception de document, identiques a quand je faisais de la production et que j’executais les doc des directeurs artistique (ex 30 couleurs aucune dans le même format).

On récolte donc des protos, conçues par des gens qui n’on jamais intégré ou conscience du markup, ni des implications de leurs choix graphiques.

En exemple le plus courrant, des titres qui change de place suivant le mode mobile, mais change de bloc container : on se retrouve a dupliquer le code, a masquer en aria-hidden pour pas que les lecteurs vocaux double… bref moi j’aime pas et généralement on peut faire sans …

Ce sont des méthodes ou type de réflexion, qui vont a l’encontre du progressive enhancement, et du mobile first.

La en tout cas ce concept est intéressant car on pense la page en fonction du contenu réel : ce qui est totalement l’inverse des méthodes les plus couramment employées, encore largement tirés du print, sauf que l’ont à enlevé des étapes comme le calibrage ^^, et que maintenant on nous envoie le contenu quand le travail est fini, on marche à l’envers.

Il y’a quelques années, j’avais été intéressé, par un projet Project Hub lancé par Brad Frost (Atomic Design methodology) : ▻https://github.com/bradfrost/project-hub. En fait l’idée est de constatent garder le fil avec le client en le poussant a participer (genre Agile) . Je pense que l’implication, le suivi, le déroulement devrait faire partie d’un seul outil ou chaque intervenant à accès aux infos, a la timeline, des notifications rappels, guideline, …

Dans un outil qui gérerait l’ensemble de la progression, l’exemple cité dans l’article peut effectivement permettre au SEO, marketeux de faire leur sauce en parallèle de l’intégrateur, sans interférer avec la partie purement dev.
Je pense que réfléchir parallèlement ainsi pourrait éviter pas mal de problème pour ceux qui sont en fin de chaine, et surtout amener à se poser les bonnes questions sans penser QUE cosmétique mais contenu. Certainement un gain de temps aussi quand on travaille a plusieurs intervenants, …

As border wall prototype construction starts, Arizona geographer speaks up

PHOENIX – Leaving behind violence and poverty, a Central American family travels thousands of miles by foot, train, and bus.

’Another brick in the wall’: 8 prototypes of Trump’s US-Mexico border wall are put on display in San Diego - as seen from Tijuana

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DMy2c1UVAAAjS9i.jpg

Eight Ways to Build a Border Wall

SAN DIEGO — They all stand neatly in a row: eight large panels on a barren dirt patch just a few hundred yards from the San Diego border with Mexico. Unveiled in late October, these are the prototypes for the border wall President Trump has vowed to erect on the southern border. Later this year, the federal government will test the panels for strength and effectiveness.

Trump’s border wall through the eyes of an architecture critic

As for their looks? This was the most surprising thing of all. When I first caught sight of them from the SUV, I worried about making even basic distinctions among them. They looked virtually identical. But as I spent more time in this odd open-air architecture gallery, it became clear that the aesthetic spectrum the prototypes covered was very wide.

The one furthest east, by #Fisher_Sand_&_Gravel, was the idea of a wall stripped to its essence, suggesting a kind of accidental minimalism, a section of a Peter Zumthor facade after a trip through the federal bureaucracy. Made of three panels that matched almost perfectly the color of the dirt at its feet, it was the simplest of the group and also — at $365,000 — among the least expensive to produce.

A very different sensibility was evident in the slab designed by #ELTA. Its bottom half was concrete, its upper half metal. The concrete section (though only on the side facing the U.S., per the official guidelines) was painted white and blue, as if it were covering a split-level ranch house outside Phoenix.

Also in this decorative vein was the concrete wall by #Texas_Sterling_Construction, which featured a white faux-brick pattern stamped into its American side. The argument these two walls made was pragmatism à la HGTV: that any piece of construction could be humanized, even made cheerful, with some measured, cost-effective ornament.

What the prototypes didn’t resemble, in any practical sense, was a wall. (A swatch of fabric is not a shirt; a lone panel from an umbrella won’t keep you dry when it rains.) It wasn’t just that they suggested Potemkin slices, architectural stand-ins to match the human ones Trump’s campaign invited to the news conference kicking off his White House bid.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional negotiators on Tuesday inched toward a potential agreement on a catchall spending bill that would deny President Donald Trump’s request for immediate funding to construct a wall along the Mexico border.

Why Trump’s wall won’t stretch ‘from sea to shining sea’

Over the past few weeks, Trump’s pledge to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border has run into political and logistical problems, raising questions about how much will be funded and built. An April 30 deal to fund the government through September excluded funds for Trump’s wall. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) anticipated in an interview to CNN that a funding plan without the wall will be challenged: “You are going to see a lot of conservatives against this plan this week.”

This is the start of something.

Here are among the first photos of prototypes for President Donald Trump’s promised U.S.-Mexico border wall — actually two walls — that are being constructed near San Diego.

Four prototypes are being made of concrete for the wall the will face the U.S. And four others for the wall that faces Mexico will be made of other materials that allow that wall to be seen through. Six contractors were hired to construct the eight prototypes, which will range from 18-30 feet high.

Government officials meet with Starr County leaders about border wall’s location

Starr County residents will soon find out how border wall construction will affect them.

That’s because notices for landowners in the western edge of the Rio Grande Valley will begin arriving in about three weeks, according to Roma Mayor Roberto Salinas.

Salinas said that information was conveyed to him and several officials from other cities in the county Monday during a meeting with U.S. Border Patrol and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Last week, CBP and Border Patrol officials confirmed that landowners in Hidalgo and Starr counties would “immediately” begin receiving notices regarding construction along the U.S.-Mexico border as it pertains to their land.

The meeting Monday with Starr County leaders was directly related to that announcement last week — in which CBP and U.S. Army Corp of Engineers officials said they would begin reaching out to landowners in the Valley to conduct “#Rights_of_Entry_for_Survey,” or (#ROE-S), in order to commence the real estate, environmental and design processes for the border infrastructure projects that were funded in CBP’s 2018 fiscal year plan.

“The #Rio_Grande_Valley sector is slated for 25 miles of new levee wall along the Rio Grande River and 8 to 12 miles of bollard wall in Starr County, #Texas — closing gaps along the border in the RGV sector is also part of the border wall project,” CBP announced following the omnibus bill’s passage at the end of March.

According to Salinas, landowners in the Starr County area will receive notification from the federal government within three weeks regarding the segment of wall and fencing in the county.

Salinas said he and other city officials were told during the meeting that the wall construction would begin east of the Fronton area and extend 5.5 miles into #Escobares, but uncertainty remains regarding the downtown area.

Border Patrol spokesman Daniel Tirado confirmed Monday’s meeting with Starr County leaders — stating that RGV Sector personnel met with city officials to provide “the most current information available regarding the proposed infrastructure construction in Starr County.”

“The topic of discussion was the approximately 8-12 miles of border barrier in Starr County and the preliminary barrier alignment proposals which are still pending survey and engineering approval,” Tirado said in an email. “It was also mentioned that potential impacted landowners in Starr County will soon receive a right of entry request letter from the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers to begin the necessary studies.”

The mayor also said that in addition to himself, he was joined by officials from Rio Grande City, Escobares and La Grulla.

Congress may snub Trump on wall, risking shutdown

Senate Republicans privately acknowledge that they’re unlikely to pass a funding bill that will satisfy the president.

Congress to push stop-gap funding bill with no border wall money

The U.S. Congress, aiming to avoid a partial government shutdown at the end of this week, began advancing legislation on Wednesday to temporarily fund several federal agencies through Feb. 8, but without money for a U.S.-Mexico border wall that President Donald Trump demanded.

“We’ll soon take up a simple measure that will continue government funding into February so that we can continue this vital (border security) debate after the new Congress has convened” in January, said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

A Senate Democratic aide said the appropriations bill, which would keep the Department of Homeland Security and several other agencies operating on a temporary basis, was expected to pass the Senate either on Wednesday or Thursday.

The House of Representatives would then have to pass the bill and hope that Trump signs it into law, avoiding a shutdown because existing funding for the agencies will expire at midnight on Friday.

By postponing decisions on spending for the agencies that also includes the departments of Justice, Commerce, Interior and Agriculture, Democrats will be in a somewhat stronger bargaining position next year when they take majority control of the House.

Democrats and many Republicans have challenged the wisdom of giving Trump $5 billion this year, and ultimately a total of at least $24 billion, to build a wall that they argue would be less effective in securing the border than building on a mix of tools already in place.

In a last-ditch attempt to resolve the impasse this year, Trump and McConnell on Tuesday proposed giving Trump a $1 billion fund that he could use at his discretion for border security.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer labeled that a “slush fund” that would lack the votes to pass Congress.

On Wednesday, McConnell attacked Democrats for rejecting it, saying, “It seems like political spite for the president may be winning out over sensible policy.”

The Ongoing Border-Wall Fight and the Limits of Public Attention

https://media.newyorker.com/photos/5c9a93cbcaf1186a4bcd799d/master/w_1626,c_limit/Lach-Border-Wall-Veto-Vote.jpg

What with crowing over the end of Robert Mueller’s investigation and vowing revenge on his enemies, President Trump seems to have forgotten all about the national emergency at the southern border that he declared just a few weeks ago. Much of the public has moved on, too. The rest of the government, though, continues to deal with the consequences of Trump’s decision. Earlier this month, the House and Senate voted—with what these days constitutes significant bipartisan support—to block Trump’s declaration, seeing it for what it was: a way for the President to run around Congress and grab billions of dollars for a border wall that lawmakers wouldn’t otherwise give him. Trump then countered Congress with a veto. (“VETO!” he tweeted, as if he were Michael Scott, the boss character on “The Office,” declaring bankruptcy.)

On Tuesday, the House voted on a measure to override Trump’s veto. Democrats hold a thirty-eight-seat majority in the House, and the entire caucus voted for the override, with fourteen Republicans joining them. But the measure fell short of the two-thirds majority it needed to pass. Despite more grumbling than usual, congressional Republicans have once again let Trump have his way. Separation of powers, the power of the purse—these things are not worth angering the base over, evidently. And why anger the base if you’ve got the judicial branch as a backstop? The fight over Trump’s national emergency will now move to the courts, where rulings, appeals, and more rulings await. Let judges sort it out.

It’s been three months since Trump shut down the government over border-wall funding, and two months since the shutdown ended. There’s been much else to occupy the public’s attention in the past few weeks: the end of the Mueller investigation, nascent Democratic Presidential campaigns, various congressional inquiries, March Madness. Will the border-wall fight end up like the travel-ban fight, Trump’s other signature effort to reimagine the nation’s borders? In the case of the travel ban, cycles of public outrage and Administration retrenchment gave way to a legal fight that ultimately resulted in the travel ban, if altered, being implemented. Last year, thirty-seven thousand people from eight countries—Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela, Somalia, and Yemen—were denied visas to the U.S. under the authority of the ban, yet public debate has all but evaporated. The slog of federal legal proceedings is not conducive to sustained public attention. Last month, more than a dozen states sued the Trump Administration over the emergency declaration. The courts are the venue where the border-wall fight is going. Public attention should follow, too.

Un autre article sur les #style-tiles par Marie Alhomme (pouipouidesign) sur le train :

Et sinon, ça y est ! On vient de commencer à utiliser ces planches graphiques, pour voir ce que ça donne ! Pour l’instant je trouve ça assez cool, à voir quand ce sera l’heure de les présenter au client…

Cet excellent article de Marie est linké dans la prez (slide 24 + dans le CR) : y’a plein de liens et ressources à y grapiller :)

Ah super ! Si ça passe pas auprès des clients (qui préfèrent parfois rester dans la mystification du coup de génie créatif et ne supportent pas de découvrir qu’un contraire, ça s’explique et ça se (dé)construit), ça sert au moins en interne, à mieux réfléchir et construire son argumentaire graphique. Bref, go !
