- 2. Hardware Requirements A Computer or Laptop: You'll need a computer or laptop that can run design tools like Figma, Adobe XD, or Sketch smoothly. A screen size of at least 13 inches is recommended for ease of designing. Internet Connection: A stable internet connection is necessary for accessing course materials, participating in live Q&A sessions, and uploading project files. Optional: Tablet with Stylus: While not mandatory, a tablet with a stylus can be useful for sketching UI ideas or designing interfaces with more precision.
- 3. Software Requirements Design Tools: Figma (Primary): Figma will be the main tool used in this course for UI design, prototyping, and collaboration. You can use the free version. Alternative Tools (Optional): Adobe XD or Sketch can be used as alternatives if you're already familiar with them. Wireframing Tools: Optional tools like Balsamiq or Lucidchart can be used for wireframing, though Figma also offers built-in wireframing capabilities. Browser and Collaboration Tools: A modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, etc.) for accessing online tools and resources. Tools like Zoom or Google Meet for participating in live sessions.
- 4. Time Commitment 6-8 Hours Per Week: On average, you should allocate 6-8 hours per week for watching lessons, completing projects, and attending live sessions. Capstone Project: The final project will require dedicated time, so plan accordingly, especially if you have a busy schedule.
- 5. Commitment to Learning Willingness to Learn and Experiment: UI/UX design involves both creativity and user-centered thinking. A curious mindset and willingness to experiment with different ideas are essential for success. Open to Feedback: Throughout the course, you'll receive feedback on your designs.
