Dear software developers and developers!

On behalf of the DevCon 2013 team, I am pleased to announce at the conference the design school
“Design of interfaces for non-designers” from design experts and founders of Turbomilk studio
Denis Kortunov and Yegor Gilyov .

Want to know more about modern app design? Want to understand what the work of the user interface designer and UX consists of? Are you interested in current trends in how the user interface interacts? Then the design school from Denis Kortunov and Yegor Gilev will be extremely useful for you!

School purpose

The work of a UI designer does not make sense without developers who implement the interface. But often, designers and programmers do not understand each other.

The main goals of the school:

• Talk about modern trends and ways of interacting with the user interface
