Should we allow UI/UX questions in our community?

A significant fraction of software developers also needs to make some UI/UX-related decisions. I am wondering if we should such questions in the Software Development community.


Based on feedback for this question, I have updated What type of questions can I ask here?.

I think it should be on-topic with the following distinction:

On-topic

  • Technical questions regarding to UI, including mark-up language syntax, how to set properties in RAD tools, how to use graphic libraries etc.
  • Algorithm questions for how to draw graphics, including at some extent the math and physics behind it.

Off-topic

  • Aesthetic questions - what looks best, color choices, graphic design and similar mostly subjective questions.

I have already integrated your feedback in the What type of questions can I ask here? section as it provides a good explanation about what is on-topic and what is not. Thanks.

Alexei‭ Maybe give it a week at least to let more people vote and give feedback?

Lundin‭ I have used "branch prediction" in this case. Your answer already has +4 and I can make amendments to the on-topic/off-topic section as feedback comes.
