I'm not a anything near to design but I appreciate the list as I've been thinking to become jack of all trades. Thank you for the list!
@udaya_sri
I hope you have a great start ๐ฅ
Iโm particularly interested in Sprint and Hooked
@morgan__harris Like wise ๐ฆ
great list! Iโd also add Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman to the book section and DesignBetter.co podcast for more insights.
@uthappa_robb Don Norman, the LEGEND. Of course.
DesignBetter.co is new to me ๐ค
will surely try it
Iโve been using Figma for a while, but itโs exciting to explore what else is out there
@grayson_lily A lot actually ๐
Figma as a tool is great. But it's a place where one should create digital versions of the ideas created in a more analog setting.
I love this list! Itโs great to see resources beyond the usual tools.
I appreciate this discussion! While Figma is fantastic,
Iโve been diving into Donโt Make Me Think by Steve Krug lately such an eye-opener for usability. For podcasts, I enjoy Design Better for its practical tips. Whatโs your go-to resource?
@akute_mauton
Currently, it's Lenny's Podcast (not in the list)
But my favourite is the Jake & Jonathan show. These guys are like my favourite people.
