Yeah – I suppose that it was just easier to draw it that way – it looks lean and clean.

However that’s a pity that some companies are still more and more putting waterfall way of thinking in people’s heads instead of switching to agile. I am not saying that agile is a solution to everything, but as you said – agile team could develop firsat prototype after few months

If they were doing agile and they had enough of the back end completed you could certainly have a quick prototype working.
This might allow some overlap development between back end and front end assuming they were not the same person.

But the nature of infographs is to be very general and straight forward. I also bet a lot of development teams still use waterfall method or poorly implemented agile methods.

Yeah I didn’t notice it was the waterfall approach but you are right. I wonder if they mapped the infographic this way because of how the developers described the process or it was just easier to make the infograph by laying it out sequential.

Ouch… Waterfall! Sounds scary first to bulid user base, backend etc and after half a year to start integrating it – so I agree with your opinion.

Agile would not speed up delivery time, however it would allow to have working system skeleton right after few weeks of development.

Yeah I did, well its being built. I will post pictures when its complete. It’s sort of a cross between the A and D designs. You should definitely look into having a stand-up desk option, maybe not for all day, but part of the day.

Did you ever get around to building one of your designs?
Would love to see the end result if so.
P.S. was looking at Flex posts, so desks were not my reason for being here, although I have always thought a stand up desk would be a great idea for home
