Design can mean many things. I am a backend developer and we also design, but our designs are for abstract structures with certain qualities required for humans, machines, and ilities. I thought that this might be related to backend design. I looked into the website looking for a definition of what hey mean by "design". I did not spend a lot of time but I could not find it. I guess they are talking about UX design. Then suddenly I am not so interested. Not because I feel that UX design is not interesting; it is extremely important. But I think we also need to talk about backend design so much more.

It's about UI and UX design. When people mix both, they usually mean "UI only, but we have to talk about UX", but this one seems honestly aimed at both.

I'm an architect and to me design definitely means a very different thing than just how the UI looks, think system design.

But in this case they are "a group of designers" specifically talking about UI design.
