How can a web developer be friends with design?

Question

Design

I am a beginner web developer (front-end).
The question arose, what about the design of sites? I'm just very sensitive to design... the taste in design is very demanding, I just can't look at a disgustingly drawn site.
The problem is that I love and appreciate beautiful things, but I can’t draw something cool, and I can’t transfer the design to another person, because those designers whose work I like simply won’t draw anything for me.
Now I don’t know what to do, should I continue to develop in the front-end and somehow learn how to draw cool designs (I don’t know how) or go to the back-end before it’s too late.?!

Answer 1

Have you thought about such a thing?
-throw a functional prototype on angular, or another framework / lib
-implement -show the
result as an alternative to what the designer came up with.
at worst, there is such a solution uilang.com

Answer 2

To draw well, you need to draw a lot :)
There is no secret here. Design is an engineering science multiplied by your own sense of taste.
If you like design, draw as a hobby. Then, having achieved some success, decide for yourself - what is more interesting for you - the front or the design. But in general, a front-facing designer or a front-drawer is always very cool and valuable.

Answer 3

Cool design in most cases != cool UX/UI and vice versa.
To learn how to do well, you need to understand the mindset of the user.
To do this, read more on the topic and everything will work out.

Answer 4

Questions like this come up almost daily.
Is it worth developing? Of course it's worth it if you like it. Do you have taste but lack the skills to create cool and tasty web interfaces? There are two options:
1. Seek until you find a good design partner who will meet your standards and determine what you want from him with a sixth sense
2. Learn until you learn how to create good design yourself

Answer 5

If there is taste, then it should be developed. Those examples that were given above will only confuse, it is more important to understand what the user needs and create a certain environment for ease of use. Design is not about beautiful pictures and illustrations, it is about solutions for certain tasks. You need some technical skills.

Answer 6

It's not clear what you want to do in the end. From the question, I understood that you singled out only two directions:
1. Become a designer yourself
2. Switch to the back-end and, therefore, stop contacting the design
I see it this way: if you like the front-end, then you can choose the third direction - to work with professionals and just good designers.
This is how you kill two birds with one stone: you continue to develop in your favorite front-end and get good experience from fellow designers.
