Getting Started with Figma + Optional Course Project and Figma file

A beginner's course in UX/UI design with Figma 

This course is a comprehensive introduction to Figma from absolute Figma beginner to advanced features. Short and focused, providing you with all you need to know to tackle any design.

We'll start from scratch by setting up your Figma account and familiarising ourselves with its file structure. Then, we'll dive into the fundamentals of Figma, such as setting up frames and nesting them, adding shapes, text, colours, and grids, and creating solid UI designs. Once you're comfortable with the basics, we dive into more advanced subjects like creating solid UI designs and working with components for reusable elements.

We will add styles and variables for consistency, create responsive designs with auto layout, and add basic prototyping to bring our designs alive, always keeping collaboration with development in mind.

With step-by-step exercises and valuable tips and tricks, you'll become proficient in Figma in under 4 hours. It's perfect for beginners or those switching from other design software like Sketch or Adobe XD to Figma.
