10 Things I Learned in My 10 Weeks at Viget

This summer, I was the Application Developer Intern at Viget. This being my first internship, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned. Rather than being tasked with fetching coffee or doing busy work, the internship focused primarily on our growth and development as interns. As my time at Viget comes to a close, I wanted to reflect on ten key things I learned during my experience here.

Following the real-world development cycle

Going into this internship, my development process involved me sitting down and coding until the feature was completed, and that's it. During this internship, I learned and practiced the development cycle used at Viget. For each feature, I created a Branch. Then, I submitted a Pull Request once it was completed. After that, my advisor reviewed my code and gave feedback. Once I had completed the requested changes (if any), I would rebase and merge into the main branch. This cycle made the code cleaner, and the feedback on my code always ensured I was going in the right direction.

Maintaining a clean git history

During my development process at Viget, my advisor ensured I took the necessary steps to maintain a clean git history in my projects. I put the corresponding issue number next to each git commit and pull request. This made it much easier to see which commits belonged to which feature when reviewing git history. I also learned to always use “rebase and merge” rather than “create a merge commit” when merging a pull request. This helped when reviewing git history as merge commits make it much more difficult to understand what’s going on, and rebase and merge provided a clean git history.

Getting introduced to DevOps

Nevin Morgan hosted a MicroClass where he went over the basics of DevOps. Going in, I didn’t know much about DevOps, but the class gave me a solid understanding of the basics. DevOps is a combination of philosophies, practices, and tools designed to improve the speed of development. Their responsibilities include:

  • Keeping Communication clear for development teams
  • Making sure teams continue collaborating
  • Ensuring deployments are quick and reliable

I also got the chance to pair with Nevin when he set up AWS deployment for one of my projects, and when he was setting up Grafana for Viget. Getting to see DevOps in action gave me a good idea of what goes into being part of the DevOps team.

Learning to work with clients

At the start of our intern group project, Nathan Long gave us a presentation on what it's like to work with clients. He covered the typical client project cycle, client presentations, and how to handle client feedback. For our project, we simulated a client relationship with Viget as our client. They provided us with their requirements, and me and the other interns planned out the details of what we would deliver. Throughout the process, we gave several client presentations, received valuable feedback, and iterated on our product. Two weeks later, we had a finished product, which we presented to the client in a live demo. This whole process was designed to mimic what Viget goes through with real clients, and seeing the different perspective required when working with clients was really eye-opening for me.

Exploring digital accessibility

Nathan Schmidt hosted a MicroClass for the interns on Accessibility. He gave us an overview of what digital accessibility is and who it impacts. I learned that digital accessibility is the lens through which we ensure that people of all abilities, and particularly those with disabilities, are able to engage with the digital world. Every website is graded to a level set from the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These guidelines include video captions, text size, color contrast, and many more requirements. It is the industry standard to follow these WCAG guidelines so that your website can be accessible to a broad range of consumers.

Building confidence in public speaking

When the summer began and I learned that I would need to present to the entire company, I felt intimidated. Public speaking has always been a source of anxiety for me, but I had numerous opportunities to work on this skill. Throughout the summer, I became increasingly confident. First, my fellow interns and I presented our group project to everyone at Viget at the company-wide all hands meeting known as TTT. I presented my personal project to the Dev team, discussing the libraries I used and walking through my code. The most significant presentation I delivered was my final one, where I spoke to everyone at Viget about my Gap Year through a Viget Tradition known as LabShares. Public speaking is a skill that improves with practice, and the various opportunities I had greatly boosted my confidence in this area.

Diving into Vanilla JavaScript

Going into this summer, I had never written a line of JavaScript in my life. I quickly learned that JavaScript is essential if you’re going to work in web development. On my personal project, which was an audio sharing social media app, I had a for you page, and I wanted to make the page update as soon as the user went to the next sound. This would require me to write JavaScript. I went through and wrote Vanilla JavaScript to update all the necessary information from the server's response. Although it was a challenging and tedious process, it significantly enhanced my understanding of how websites work and the role of JavaScript in web development.

Getting my feet wet with Rails

For the first half of the internship, I got my foothold in Ruby on Rails. This was my first time writing in Ruby, so there was a bit of a learning curve. I started with the Rails tutorial and then made a Hacker News clone. This exposed me to a broad range of the application stack and got me prepared for the Intern project, where I also used Rails. I found Rails’ Model, View, Controller setup to be very intuitive, so the learning process was relatively painless.

Discovering the benefits of Tailwind

Being the only Application Developer Intern, my focus throughout the internship was primarily on the back-end. However, I did have the chance to use Tailwind for the first time during my personal project. The biggest thing that stuck out to me was how it was convenient to not have to go through and change the stylesheets myself. With Tailwind's utility-first approach, you can quickly apply predefined classes for spacing, colors, typography, and more, without having to write custom CSS. This makes it much faster to prototype and iterate on designs, as you can see changes immediately by simply adjusting the class names in your HTML.

Exploring the Basics of React

Chris Manning hosted a MicroClass on React. I had never actually used React, but he made the class very beginner friendly. React is a JavaScript library, whose main strength is how dynamically it responds to user input and cascades UI changes. Chris went over JSX and React components, props, children, and state memory. I didn’t have time to actually write any React this summer, but I appreciate that Chris hosted this class after I said React was something I was interested in!

Reflecting on what I’ve learned here at Viget, I realize how invaluable this experience has been for both my personal and professional growth. From learning Rails and JavaScript, to understanding the intricacies of client relationships, I've gained a wealth of knowledge that extends far beyond technical skills. The opportunity to work alongside experienced professionals and receive constructive feedback has been a huge source of development for me. As I move forward, I am excited to apply these lessons and continue exploring the world of Software Development, confident in the foundation this internship has provided.

Branding and Packaging Design for Di Ligúria: Italian Roots with Brazilian Flair

Branding and Packaging Design for Di Ligúria: Italian Roots with Brazilian Flair

abduzeedo

Discover the branding and packaging design of Di Ligúria, a Brazilian pizzeria, blending Italian heritage with Brazilian charm.

When two Brazilian entrepreneurs with Italian heritage set out to create Di Ligúria, a pizzeria in Belo Horizonte, they wanted more than just a menu of pizzas. They sought a brand that paid homage to the flavors, traditions, and warmth of Italian culture while embodying the lively spirit of Brazilian dining. Designer Danilo Akan took on this challenge, developing a branding and packaging design that bridges these cultural elements seamlessly.

Di Ligúria’s brand identity is grounded in a love for Italian cuisine, inspired by the founders’ Genoese roots and the culinary culture of the Liguria region. Akan crafted a visual concept that honors this Italian foundation while infusing a relaxed Brazilian vibe. The name “Di Ligúria” itself is a tribute to Italy’s Liguria region, signaling an immediate connection to Italian authenticity.

Akan’s design approach captures this dual identity, focusing on simplicity, elegance, and a playful touch. Using negative space and bold typographic elements, Akan brings the essence of Italian tradition forward, yet retains a fresh, contemporary look that appeals to a wide audience. His design balances modern aesthetics with nostalgic elements of Italian dining, creating a memorable brand that invites customers to savor the Italian experience.

The most striking element of Di Ligúria’s brand identity is its innovative typography. Akan developed a typographic style that incorporates subtle nods to pizza and pasta, the core offerings of Di Ligúria. By using negative space within the letterforms, particularly in the letter “G,” Akan brings visual references to pizza slices and pasta strands. This clever use of negative space allows the brand to visually communicate its primary products in an understated yet effective way.

The logo’s typeface is both modern and classic, giving a nod to Italian design’s timeless elegance. This typographic style doesn’t just serve as a brand marker but becomes an integral part of the visual experience, subtly reinforcing the restaurant’s Italian roots while remaining approachable.

Packaging that Enhances the Experience

In addition to branding, the packaging design plays a significant role in delivering Di Ligúria’s identity. Packaging is designed not just for functionality but as an extension of the dining experience. By integrating graphic patterns inspired by Italian motifs, Akan’s design makes every pizza box, pasta container, and salad package an experience in itself.

The patterns, echoing Italian ceramic tiles and Mediterranean styles, contribute to the visual storytelling of Di Ligúria. They evoke the charm of Italy and the idea of gathering around a table with family and friends. With packaging that feels thoughtful and distinctive, customers are reminded of the quality and heritage behind each meal.

From the moment a customer sees the logo to when they unbox a fresh pizza, Di Ligúria’s branding and packaging tell a story. Each design choice reflects the founders’ desire to create a brand that goes beyond fast food and into a cultural experience, filled with Italian warmth and Brazilian vitality. Akan’s thoughtful use of typography, graphic patterns, and packaging demonstrates how design can capture a brand’s essence and elevate the customer’s experience.

For anyone looking to explore Akan’s creative process and Di Ligúria’s full brand story, more details are available on his website.

Di Ligúria’s branding and packaging design provide an excellent example of how design can connect cultural roots with a fresh perspective. Akan’s work successfully weaves Italian traditions into a Brazilian setting, delivering a design that’s as inviting as the food it represents.

Adobe Illustrator 2025 Splash Screen Illustration: TRÜF’s “Weird Fishes”

Adobe Illustrator 2025 Splash Screen Illustration: TRÜF’s “Weird Fishes”

abduzeedo

Discover how TRÜF’s “Weird Fishes” splash screen for Adobe Illustrator 2025 celebrates creativity with vibrant, minimalist illustration.

The Adobe Illustrator 2025 splash screen opens with a statement: creativity meets minimalism. Designed by TRÜF Studio, the “Weird Fishes” artwork that greets users embodies Adobe’s tools while making an instant visual impact. This splash screen not only excites users about the app but also showcases Illustrator’s dynamic possibilities, creating a memorable start to the creative process. Here’s a look at the creative vision, tools, and collaboration behind this unique splash screen update.

“Weird Fishes”: A Showcase of Creative Tools

TRÜF’s “Weird Fishes” centers on playfully stylized fish, created using Adobe Illustrator’s updated typography and 3D tools, which highlight the 2025 release’s expanded capabilities. This splash screen is a celebration of how Illustrator can bring out unique textures, gradients, and typographic designs, making it feel like a blend of traditional and digital artistry. The design follows Adam G’s distinctive style—minimal yet quirky, with each element purposefully crafted to show off Adobe’s creative potential.

The splash screen, as Adobe intended, isn’t just a loading screen. It’s a reminder of what Illustrator users can “Dream Up.” As Alex Fernald and Gleren Meneghin, Adobe’s staff designers, emphasized, the splash screens are not only entry points into the app but connections to Adobe’s creative community. They bring in commissioned art, linking Illustrator users to other creators while inviting exploration of the software’s capabilities.

Balancing Art and Function in the Design

This splash screen’s journey began the old-fashioned way—on paper. This initial sketching phase gave TRÜF the freedom to experiment with the composition, exploring the balance of shapes and lines. Once refined, the concept moved into Illustrator, where TRÜF fully explored the software’s features to enhance the digital version. In a brief, 90-second process video, TRÜF showcased their workflow from sketch to the finished splash screen, a rare peek into how minimalist, impactful design comes together.

A User-Centric Approach to Illustration

Adobe’s splash screens, including “Weird Fishes,” are a result of ongoing feedback from users. Through surveys sent to product teams, Adobe designers Alex and Gleren learned the nuances that users valued in the loading screen—like minimal launch delays and artist recognition. This feedback shaped the design, ensuring the new splash screens would spotlight the artist while maintaining the program’s efficiency.

To make the splash screen visually immersive, Adobe made adjustments based on past feedback. The artwork was enlarged, and the artist’s name appears in a larger, bold typeface, creating a clearer hierarchy that celebrates both the art and artist. As the Adobe Spectrum design system evolved, so did the splash screens, aligning with modern standards while preserving Adobe’s commitment to showcasing diverse creative voices.

Reflecting Adobe’s Evolution with Modern Minimalism

Historically, Illustrator splash screens have evolved alongside the Adobe brand. From early versions in the 1980s, featuring iconic art references, to today’s community-focused pieces, these screens highlight a shift from static visuals to dynamic creative introductions. Adobe’s recent redesign, led by Fernald and Meneghin, reimagined this format to center both the artist and the Adobe brand, using clean type and colors while expanding the visual space for the artwork. This shift reaffirms Adobe’s mission to foster connections within its creative ecosystem.

The splash screens across Adobe products are meant to offer a consistent brand experience, but each one also tells a unique story, showcasing the latest in illustration and design through collaboration with Studio team artists. Adobe’s team expanded the artwork’s size, adjusting its specs back to 2019 dimensions to create a more immersive user experience. The Adobe wordmark in red stands beside the product name in black, emphasizing the connection between Adobe and its creative community.

The Legacy and Future of Adobe Splash Screens

“What’s next?” is a question Adobe’s designers are always answering. With the 2025 Illustrator splash screen’s debut at Adobe MAX 2024, Adobe introduced the latest evolution in Creative Cloud. These splash screens remain essential touchpoints, showcasing new work, enhancing user experience, and connecting each user to Adobe’s creative network.

TRÜF’s “Weird Fishes” invites Illustrator users to think beyond the ordinary. It’s a nod to the creative possibilities the software enables, a tribute to digital and analog techniques, and a reminder that every creative journey begins with opening Adobe Illustrator.

This splash screen illustration is a subtle invitation for creatives to make the most of Illustrator’s tools and capabilities, setting the stage for inspired design from the moment they open the app.
