The article emphasizes the need for a clear folder structure to manage various UX assets, which often become scattered across different platforms like Slack and Dropbox. It introduces an organizational starter kit by Courtney Pester, suggesting the division of assets into seven categories: Client resources, Research & synthesis, Concept ideation & testing, Wireframes & prototypes, Meeting artifacts, Final deliverables, and UI + Dev handoffs. Proper organization not only facilitates easy access but also requires discipline in maintaining a centralized repository for all project documents.
Every project starts by duplicating the same main folder template and adjusting it for the needs of the project. Most importantly, we choose a central place where all key assets have to be located - be it Notion, Google Drive, Dropbox, or anything else.
Courtney suggests breaking down all assets and resources into 7 main categories - all representing distinct parts of the project lifecycle, and neatly broken down into sub-folders.
