UXDX Community:Oslo: States, Metrics, Decisions - Building Products Together

A surprising amount of user experience happens in the in-between moments—loading screens, errors, and empty states. These gaps between data fetching and the final render are easy to overlook, yet they strongly influence how polished a React application feels.
This session takes a practical engineering view on architecting these moments: what’s feasible, where designer–engineer collaboration matters, and how React’s ecosystem tools help. It covers reusable patterns for loading sequences, skeletons, and error boundaries, and shows how small architectural decisions shape a smoother, more intentional product experience.

What if you could prove the impact of design in numbers and clearly visualise the value created for everyone? This session shows how measuring what we create helps design move from decoration to real impact. We will look at real examples where simple changes cut hours to minutes and uncovered millions in hidden costs. You will see how setting clear goals and tracking outcomes makes it possible to share results internally and externally, building trust and influence. The methods apply to any project, helping you show the tangible benefits of great user experiences and the role design plays in achieving them.

When a real customer problem finally lands on your desk, the temptation is to jump straight to the first solution that feels “right.” Most teams do this without noticing. The result is often a narrow exploration phase and a solution that rests on hidden assumptions.
This talk will discuss how to widen your perspective before you narrow it again, deliberately exploring multiple options, challenging your own assumptions, and testing solutions with more confidence.
