App Planning and Prototyping with Figma

If you need a powerful, collaborative tool to design, plan, and prototype digital applications, Figma is the industry standard. This course provides the foundational knowledge necessary to start using Figma effectively for UI/UX design. By the end of this course, you will be able to structure complex app designs, create reusable elements, and generate interactive prototypes that clearly communicate the intended user experience to stakeholders and development teams. What you'll learn: * Understand the core interface, file structure, and collaborative features within the Figma environment. * Design clean, scalable user interfaces using frames, constraints, and modern typography and color systems. * Build and manage reusable component libraries and apply the principles of Auto Layout for responsive design. * Practice creating interactive prototypes, linking screens, and defining complex user flows for mobile and web applications. * Apply basic accessibility principles during the design process to ensure inclusive digital products. * Configure files for efficient developer handoff, including asset export and specification documentation. The course begins with essential terminology and setup, guiding you through basic design principles before moving into practical exercises on creating wireframes, building component libraries, and finalizing prototypes. This course is designed for absolute beginners interested in UI/UX design, product planning, or app development. No prior experience with design tools or coding is required.
