Should a developer be a designer?

Question

I have been developing websites for quite some time, and am I not so good at website development? My boss is referring to me to take lessons.

But do I really want to stick to design, not design?

Answer 1

You do not have to be a designer. But I highly recommend that you understand the process and some of the methods used. Having this knowledge will help both in working with designers and in improving endings.

I would do the course, but I will explain to my boss that this is not what I want to do as my main job.

However, I acknowledge for free that I am poorly versed in a design that looks good. Functional, maybe, but not very good. You could say something similar to your boss - yes, you can learn how to design, but you will never be as good as a real designer. Similarly, a developer studying a program will never be as good as a dedicated developer.
