Jargon, Lingo, Language
A Glossary of Product Design and Development Terminology
At Revelry, you don’t have to know and you can always ask. Two of our Core Values lay the groundwork for this:
- “Earn and Dispense Trust”
- “Fear is the Mind Killer”
There’s a lot of jargon thrown around in software design and development land. Before your eyes glaze over wondering about the last three acronyms you heard, polish up your linguistic lingo with Revelry’s handy glossary of tech terms / terminology below.
And, as you work with our team of product managers, UI / UX design engineers, and back-end developers, you’re encouraged to ask about anything that’s unclear and to trust we are happy to make sure we all have a shared understanding of any and all concepts. After all, innovation is a team sport.
