Open Source UX Design with PatternFly

Open Source allows developers to collaborate and learn from each other to create more robust applications faster. However, UX and design are often missing from this process. PatternFly is an open source design community that provides design guidance to open source software projects and allows designers to participate in the open source process. Leslie and Allie will share their experience of creating this community at Red Hat, receiving external contributions, and how we’ve applied these open source designs to Red Hat products.
