Design for Value: More Discovery, Less Delivery
summary
Adobe XD team rebuilds common UX workflows instead of copying Photoshop: a new guide gesture lets users drag guides from the artboard edge with measurements on the guide (no rulers), repeat grid duplicates and syncs cards so one edit updates all, and auto-animate plus a new States model replaces dozens of artboards to represent component variants. Live coediting ships as a beta after three years; product advice emphasizes spending ~80% time on discovery and designing with customers.
