Adobe Xd

On Monday Adobe released the Preview Version of the Project Comet now called Adobe Experiences Design CC 

This Is what adobe had to say

Introducing Adobe Experience Design CC (Preview)

On behalf of the Project Comet team, I’m thrilled to let you know that Project Comet has become Adobe Experience Design CC (Preview), or Adobe XD as we refer to it. We’re making our first preview release for Mac OS available today, with a Windows version coming later this year. Everyone can use Adobe XD for free during the preview period – you can download it from Adobe.com or through the Creative Cloud desktop app.

While our team has been working to bring you Adobe XD for some time, this really represents the start of our journey to craft an end-to-end solution for experience design, one that Adobe is committed to undertaking in partnership with the UX design community. We’ve seen how designers think beyond just the visual design of a website or app, but also on optimizing and improving the overall user experience. You can read more about Adobe’s thoughts on Experience Design as a whole here.
For Adobe XD, we’ve received great input from over 5,000 designers as part of our pre-release program and are now excited to get your feedback on our public release as we continue working on Adobe XD.
Adobe XD makes it easy to undertake wire framing, visual design, interaction design, prototyping, previewing and sharing, by bringing together the tools you need for experience design into a single solution. We’re starting by delivering a basic set of tools in each of those areas, with the feedback we receive helping to determine the ultimate set of features that you need, while continuing to ensure we don’t compromise on delivering amazing performance and a comfortable design experience.

What’s in the public preview?

In this first preview release of Adobe XD you’ll find:
  • Focused design tools – create wireframes, screen layouts and production-ready artwork
  • Prototyping tools – define flows, triggers and transitions as part of your design
  • Built in sharing – create a video recording of your prototype or share a link to an interactive prototype hosted on Creative Cloud
  • Support for bringing in existing assets from Photoshop, Illustrator and Sketch
  • Blisteringly fast performance – create projects that bring together complex designs for web, mobile, tablet, watches and more, without any slow down.
As you get started with the preview release, be sure to check out the sample file available from the start screen, as well as our learn tutorials and documentation.

What’s still to come?

Being a preview release, we’re exposing a work-in-progress. This means you’re likely to find some gaps in the tools and likely wish for increased capabilities in a number of areas. We hope you’ll embrace the opportunity to join us on this exciting journey as we continue making progress on Adobe XD.
Based on the feedback we’ve already received, these are some of the areas that we’ve lined up to work on next:
  • Enhanced design features, including support for gradients, richer text, effects and blend modes
  • An improved color picker
  • Support for working with layers
  • More control over the sharing of prototype links
  • Authoring of scrollable content
  • Micro-interactions for prototyping
  • Real-time design preview and prototype testing on mobile devices (iOS and Android)
  • Reusability and sharing of design assets and styles, leveraging Creative Cloud libraries
  • An extensibility/API layer for plug-ins
  • Availability on Microsoft Windows 10 (preview release estimated for late 2016)
Our team will be delivering updates to Adobe XD every month, with a mix of new features, enhancements to existing features and bug fixes, so you’ll see us move fast to deliver these additional capabilities to you as part of Adobe XD.
I then had an Idea for my being human project to design a application that represents what my installation is and it will present the information about being human.

For My Alternative Miss World I am now going to design a live prototype of the Loci Application.
