Great video. One recommendation is to avoid using "1-many" as a range in the blue stickies. "1-many" has such a ubiquitous and specific use to describe a relationship that it could cause confusion used in this context. In this context the "has n" where n is a numerical range is describing the relationship. So it may be more clear to say "has 1 or more Employees..." Its like you are using two different grammars. For example, the relationship between a baked good and an allergen could be described as a "many-many relationship", that is 1 baked good to 0 or multiple allergens OR one allergen to many baked goods. or you describe the relationship in OO terms by saying "has 0 or more allergens"
Please look more into OOUX and you'll understand why we use this terminology! It actually does line up with database and developer speak intentionally. During the requirements round of the ORCA process we dig even deeper into cardinality.
Thanks so much!
Great video, thanks! Would you always recommend an object to have its own detail page? What if I have a complex component with its own functionality, metadata and CTA'a that only appears on 1 page, should this still be classed as core content? Thanks.
Not always! Like a COMMENT object...sometimes might not have detail page. Not clear on second questions but if you want to elaborate over on the OOUX Forum, I'd be happy to dig into it! Create a free account and post your questions to the next Q&A session...which is TODAY actually! forum.ooux.com/spaces/11283002/content
Thanks Sophia, can you do a quick explainer on you side note system modelling diagrams?
OOOH! Great idea! have you listened my podcast on system modeling? www.ooux.com/resources/episode040
Object Mapping, Story Mapping, Journey mapping, etc etc.. where is the pros and cons table for these methods? Sometimes I think there are so many methods, we create slight variations thinking it's new. What's wrong with detailing data via a UML diagram or annotating low fidelity wireframes or paper prototypes? What I am uncertain about is whether OOUX is actually a good step forward or just a different flavour of existing methods and not better at all. Also, another question: does a strong design system enable OOUX?
Hey! Object mapping is for a completely different purpose than story mapping and journey mapping. Object mapping is to visualize the nouns. Journey and story mapping is mostly focusing on the verbs. UML diagrams are great and an object map does serve a very similar purpose. But UML diagrams are not as collaborative, flexible and are harder to read once you have more than 5 objects or if any object has more than a handful of attributes. You quickly get an unreadable bowl of spaghetti diagram. OOUX is not a trend or a rebrand or a repackaging. Its definitely a methodology that I created standing on the shoulders of giants but it's helping 1000s of UX wrangle complexity in a new way. According to Brad Frost and Dan Mall, who I have both had on my podcast, OOUX is key to a semantic and meaningful design system. Got to OOUX.com and you can learn more and see direct quotes from both of them. Hope you continue to look into OOUX and see the value.
@@SophiaVUX Thanks for the considered reply. Do you have any steer on how OOUX and design systems can co-exist in a meaningful way to increase effectiveness? I am building a design practice for an agency that has an established open source design system. Thank you!

There you have it!
@@SophiaVUX Thank you very much
If i want to redesign one of my pages on the site say the product detail page, is it possible to use OOUX just for this one page?
YES! Give it a try!
I'm still wondering if price and icon belong to the yellow sticky....are they not content? I can see how you may filter and item by price...but what if there is no need to filter by price as in this example.🤔 maybe at some point the content and metadata would just merge together as OOUX matures?
Good catch on Icon! Totally CC. But price - think metadata if it could potentially be sorted or filtered by. And separating between pink and yellow is definitely useful and a solid practice in OOUX - it's not going anywhere! Separating attributes by CC and metadata is a sign of a more nuanced and mature practice, not less!
why don't use UML patterns to help visualize "objects" how they are?
I find this system very confusing and time consuming. You can sketch a concept is minutes and just write the requirements next to the sketch... an that way everybody will understand. Seems to me that this is working back ways.
didn't understand a thing
What diagram software are you using? that looks very neat
Is this some sort of commercial for the use of illegal substances 😂?
Or is it ADHD ?
Did you watched the clip after? 😂😂😂
