At Tuist, we care deeply about the value Tuist provides and how it feels. Until recently, code was our only tool for that, and we did the best we could, but when it came to design… our work wasn’t at the level we wanted it to be. With Tuist expanding into the web to provide teams with optimizations and telemetry—without which it’s impossible to improve a dev environment—it became clear that it was time to invest in our design craft.
@asmit joined the team, familiarized himself with the tool and the developer tooling space, and embarked on taking our design system for CLIs, Noora, to the web. Noora became Tuist’s universal design system, and we used it as a foundation to revamp our dashboard. We took the opportunity to rethink our layout, onboarding, flows, terminology, hierarchy—everything. We wanted Tuist to feel truly special and lay the foundation for addressing future problems that we continue to see in teams.
The result of all that work is our new dashboard, which is already available to all of you. This new dashboard is the result of exceptional work not only from @asmit, but also from @cschmatzler who translated it into code and developed a significant portion of the dashboard, and @marekfort who joined and contributed to the dashboard as well. I’m biased, but I think it looks beautiful.
Now building new features feels like assembling LEGOs—we can move faster, which means we have creative bandwidth to continue improving the product with limited resources.
I hope you like the result of our work. Please don’t hesitate to respond to this topic with any questions you might have.
