- Why should people use this category? What is it for?
This category is for Tech Designers & Patternmakers to connect & discuss the specifics of this (often undiscussed!) job category
- How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?
Specifically geared towards those in this job category
- What should topics in this category generally contain?
Anything that directly pertains to Tech Designers & Patternmakers
- Do we need this category? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory?
Maybe not! We’ll see. Hopefully to drive some connection and learning 🙂
