2016 is the last year of flat meme.
It's time to get on the next level.

Material Design is actually the best design language yet, given developers adhere to Google's design guidelines.

That's how it was supposed to be. Old designs were making clickable things 3d-ish, material was less intuitive due to the lack of volume.

Yes, I know about Google's Guidelines on Material Design.
That said, not all of their guidelines are all that great.
For example, their HTML/CSS styleguide:
https://google.github.io/styleguide/htmlcssguide.xml
They tell you to omit as many tags as HTML5 allows. Like, fucking Christ.<!-- Recommended -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<title>Saving money, saving bytes</title>
<p>Qed.<ul>
<li>Moe
<li>Larry
<li>Curly

What's your point?

>>58136136
As the digital designers now value content over shiny sparkly presentation, and the maximal legibility of content it's now a fundamental part of digital design and won't go away so soon.

This.
Material/Flat design is a very well thought out concept, that if done right is a million times more intuitive than

That infuriates me. Is that doc even going to validate? Even so, why not just use the closing tags for clarity to other devs who will no doubt have to go over your shit at some point?

>>58134493
Minimalism/ "flat" design is a jewish ploy to make us dumber. Things are incredibly easy to look at, and soon the english language will be phased out by emojis, and it will make us more docile and less inclined to think critically. Screencap this.

I like buttons that look like buttons. I like things that are detailed enough to know what they are, and specially, to distinguish them. That's all I want.
I don't appreciate how flat everything is these days. I want "iconic" icons. I don't want a fucking circle with a letter.

No, Python is not beautiful. Python is a valley blonde with big fake tits. Sure, they might look good in a sweater, but once you actually get your hands on them you realize that if you move anything around things will break.

Funny. Flat design leaves me lost in a sea of white where I have a hard time finding the 1 pixel thick, slightly off-white dividing line in my 4k display. But I suppose I'm "using it wrong".

I disagree. Normally you'd be right but we're comparing let's say python 3 for arguments sake against the HTML/CSS/Javascript of the modern day. The Valley Blond isn't great but put her next to the fat aging whore with too much makeup, a cesarean scar, obvious signs of drug abuse and crossed eyes and the valley blonde starts looking a lot better.

4d design for space efficiency so good that it literally cannot be fully comprehended by the human mind.
>>
>>58141160
>You could ALWAYS do that
I know HTML allowed you to omit tags to save hard-drive space, but now-a-days every web-server compresses your files before sending them out, so removing every closing tag, and thus sacrificing readability, just sounds like a stupid thing to do.
It's probably just that I'm fond of xHTML's strictness.
>>
>>58134522
Second. Only reason flat was shilled was because it's cheap (as in money) to design. Good design (which skeuomorphism tends to enforce by, well, design) costs money.
>>
>>58136104
>They tell you to omit as many tags as HTML5 allows
And then dump everything worthwhile into the client-side JS MVC framework of the month while depending on CSS hacks for basic functionality.
Ta-da, what looks minimal on the surface is now bloated, botnet infested cancer that lags like hell on a modern broadband connection.

I think it's time to transition into a more 3d esque UI.
Not like shit like before like iPhones but man I missed nice looking 3d UI like HTC like One V and such
We have all the power in our phones to have beaitiful ui's but we settle for less.
I miss timescape UI by Sony (not the lag though)

ITT people thinking material is flat because it doesn't use gradients
>>
>>58148851
Material is clearly not volumetric.
>>
>>58149125
yea, they have a kind of drop shadow, but it looks more like layered paper, where buttons in win9x actually look like real physical buttons
>>
>>58134493
When you've hit rock bottom, the only way is up
>>
I do like the classic themes for Windows and some older systems, because of those gradients. The use of grey colors instead of fully white I really dig, and also that they do look like real buttons that you're pressing. They have a depth to it.
It's not the equivalent, but I still like physical buttons more than touchscreen buttons for certain tasks.
