I agree!

I've often gotten sidetracked in design software so many times when all I needed to do was add a small update to the UI.

The process goes something like... 1. Have an idea or requirement to add a small tweak or feature. 2. Find the original design file. 3. Figure out how the file is constructed. 4. Get frustrated because I notice unrelated inconsistencies. 5. Forget what I was originally doing. 6. Realize hours have past and I haven't accomplished the simple task yet.

I am creating NextUX to make updates to designs faster and easier for more people.

My process now looks like... 1. Have an idea or requirement to add a small tweak or feature. 2. Take screenshot(s), update the design, and add comments. 3. Share the iteration with the team in Trello or Jira.

I hope NextUX enables non-designers to incorporate more visuals with their writing. It doesn't have to be pretty, but adding mockups to a spec doc, long email, or jira issue makes it so more obvious what is being proposed.
