On Simplicity
WIP document
A topic that's often on my mind that often comes up when evaluating solutions.
- What is "simple"?
- Complex vs complicated
- Simple is complex
- Different types of simplicity
- Simple components, complex systems
- Simplicity trade-offs (simple interface vs simple implementation)
- When simplicity/complexity pays off (and when it doesn't)
- Communicating complexity, simply
- What are the factors that result in different people perceiving something as "simple" and "overly complicated" at the same time
