By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Recreate the Swiggy or Zomato app in Figma — every screen, every component. Use auto layout and variants properly.
Good design starts with understanding users. Learn user interviews, surveys, personas, journey maps, and cognitive principles that drive user behavior.
By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Research how 5 people use a food ordering app. Create personas, a journey map, and identify 3 pain points with proposed solutions.
Structure before style. Learn to organize information, create site maps, user flows, and wireframes that solve the right problems before pixel-pushing.
By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Design the information architecture for an Indian education platform: site map, user flows for 3 key tasks, and wireframes for 10 screens.
Make designs feel alive. Learn micro-interactions, animation principles, transition design, and how to prototype realistic experiences in Figma.
By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Design a mobile onboarding flow with 5 screens, smooth transitions, and micro-interactions. Make it testable in Figma prototype mode.

By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Build a design system in Figma with 20+ components, a color system, typography scale, and spacing tokens. Include accessibility guidelines.
Test your designs with real users. Learn to plan tests, moderate sessions, analyze results, and iterate on your designs based on evidence.
By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Test your education platform design with 5 users. Record sessions, identify issues, and create a before/after showing how you fixed each problem.
Your portfolio is your resume. Build 3-4 detailed case studies that show your design process, not just pretty screens. Process > pixels.
By the end, you'll be able to
Mini-project
Build your portfolio site with 3 detailed case studies. Each should cover: problem, research, ideation, design, testing, and outcomes.
Design interviews include: portfolio review, design challenge (whiteboard), app critique, and behavioral questions. Practice all four formats.
