Spring Blog Assignment #1

I chose Uber, Gitlab Pajamas, A Fluent 2.

First thing I noticed is actually me having issues with Uber and having to login to see it. Ridiculous.

Gitlab is a repository for people that don’t fully know how to use git yet. It’s design reflects this because its mostly based around intuition and simplicity. This is something that companys like Adobe figured out early and I believe is a big reason they are so successful.

Uber has a very dark and slick look to it. Almost trying to conjure a bad ass persona. I mostly use Lift for this reason. That and pricing but still. Uber has a lot of really big buttons and letters to make the things stick out. My guess is that they designed this specifically so that drunk people could still use it.

I didn’t even know what Fluent 2 was until I started this. Now I understand its basically the basis Microsoft uses for its UI. Which includes lots of colorful icons. As of Windows 11 they have also opted to make everything rounded. Which too their credit does make it look more modern.
