They deserve appreciation for providing such valuable content to the community. Love your effort Ansh

This concept of variables is not only amazing, but to use the number type in the prototype mode is mind-blowing 😂. Ansh, bless you for creating this course.

I've been searching for a good course in UI UX then I got this And I must say this is the best and detailed course till date, hatsoff to your efforts. Thankyou

I really liked the way you teach the concepts in a way anyone can understand if the person watch it carefully. I have learned a lot from your AI videos about prompting and how to use AI in day-to-day life. Now, I'm learning about design and Figma from your videos. Thanks a lot for such detailed and informative content. I hope you get more growth and success along with the respect you deserve by making this high-quality content for free for students.

Ansh really love the way you make the complicating things in a very simple and easy to understand please continue... We need you!

This is the best series i have came across,very much helpful for beginners,please don't pause it🙏❤

Finally, I found a dedicated and responsible mentor who is teaching design for free. Some rarely deliver their knowledge freely. Thank you, Sir. Lots of support and respect.

Another Gem. This one took me about 3 to 4 watch to wrap my head around the concept and mind blown to how powerful Figma is, its really a game changer. I have been using this course to carry out an experimental project. I am surpised how much I have done from no knowledge of Figma to the amazing thing I have now created will be sharing my finished work with you Ansh, if you ever have the chance would appreciate your feedback. Once again Thank you Ansh this has been super helpful and I am grateful.

Bang !! Another superb video. 🙌🔥Learned a lot today. Switching between modes was a really cool thing I got to know. I'm excited about the prototype lecture. That is where I lag behind. Please people make it 1K likes and 500 comments🥺🥺🙏🙏. These people are really working hard to explain to us such things for free.

I'm learning a lot from this course. Please don't end the series. I'm super thankful for your effort and hope to learn more from you!

I am doing Ux/Ui course I have learned more from you than i have learned in my college in last 2 years...Thank you

I think even you don't know how valuable these videos are ! Hands off to you. You are doing a great work 😇

This video definetly gave me an insight on how powerful and cool the variables are, now I need to read the documentation to fill the knowledge gaps. 🤯 Thank you for creating this awesome video. ❤

This tutorial is incredibly helpful! Ansh explains Figma variables in a way that's easy to understand, and the examples provided really enhance the learning experience. It's a must-watch for anyone looking to up their Figma game!

Cheers Ansh! Thank you so much for these extremely helpful tutorials. These are top class, industry standard modules. I am learning so much and I appreciate all of the hard work and detail that you put forth into sharing your expertise. Please do no not stop. I would love to see this ten part series to the end. This is such a competitive field and when you find a mentor/teacher that can be the difference in getting hired or not, you want to learn as much as possible, as often as possible. Many thanks for all you do.

Ansh, there is nothing like you uploading tutorials for us. I have already watched all of your videos and I wait every week to watch you. Please don't stop uploading. I have learned a lot from you and your content, and I want to continue my learning further.

I just found you today as I was looking for more information on the variables Figma offers. I've been an application developer for over 20 years now and interface / user experience was something that was always part of my job. My career took a different path after Covid. I was laid off from my last position and was blessed enough to move strictly into UI/UX design which is a TON less stress and so much more enjoyable. I've been working with Adobe XD and made the switch to Figma and so far I'm loving it. I'm subscribed to your channel and def will be picking through your content to expand my Figma knowledge. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these. I look forward to the knowledge you provide.

Haven't seen a better tutorial for figma variables. Amazing explanation and easy to follow. Great stuff! 👏

Hey Ansh! You're creating cool stuff about Figma, UX design and How a designer should upscale in current fast-forward life. Keep uploading! 🔥 I'm glad that my friend recommended me an amazing content creator for learning UX Design. 😊

This series is my goto for absolutely any figma doubts !!!

I've been really enjoying the Figma course that you've been teaching, and I expect you to continue the series. I've learned so much already, and I'm eager to keep learning more.

I just wanted to drop by and say how much I appreciate your videos. Seriously, they've been a huge help to me, and I don't get why more people aren't tuning in. Your content is solid, and I genuinely believe you've got what it takes to make it big on RU-vid. Keep doing what you're doing, stay consistent, and success will find you. Looking forward to more awesome content from you! 🔥💯

Hello Ansh, Yes it's as you said we'll most prolly have to watch this playlist 2-3 time minimum to get a proper understanding and later on apply this knowledge. It's been really insightful so far, hope this playlist doesn't have too long breaks, will definitely continue to support you !!!

That Was the new topic for me. I have to be learning first time and it was insane for me to just adjust and arrange colors based on my requirement and specifically good for me for arranging and defining the colors for our UI designs and I don't have words to says about that because Everything You should say earlier before, and great man love it.

Thank you Ansh for teaching us everything in thorough detail. It matters a lot for us.❤ Really appreciate your time & efforts.❤

Wow, this was such a clear and concise explanation of Figma variables! I especially liked the color scoping feature. Thanks Ansh!

Amazing insights! I’ve gained a clear understanding of what variables actually are. I loved the way you were enjoying yourself while explaining; it creates excitement in us as viewers too. This video was quite different, as I could literally see how the problems I face are actually resolved using these variables. I request you to please continue this series. Many of us are looking forward to it. Thank you, Ansh , for providing so much value to us. We appreciate it.”

This is mindblowing! thank you so much for the explanation. Best channel I found on youtube!

Your series is extremely valuable for us. Please continue releasing the next videos in this series. We really appreciate your time and efforts, @Ansh Mehra ♥

For the first UX case study that I did (food ordering app), I ended up making entire components for just adding another element to the cart. The set variable feature is such a pragmatic prototyping too that I had no idea about. That's my biggest takeaway from this lesson that I am getting to spot my previous hiccups and improvise. BIG THANK YOU!

I am a full stack developer. This course is really easy to understand because I already know the design terms which are used in CSS very similar to figma l. So, If you are a web developer then trust me you'll learn it just like Fun with CSS

Took me a while to get back to this series. I had completed the first 4 videos in a short span of time and wanted to take a break in order to process the information and not get overwhelmed. This video though, I had to watch twice because there's so much to grasp! But finally finished it and have also began implementing this, thank you again for all your efforts Ansh, looking forward to the day where I can convey the gratitude in person :)

this man's a genius and im happy that i exist at the same time he does.

Thank you thank you so much sir. You don't believe when you upload figma video I feel over the moon. I understand very well with your video. Love and respect for you 😊❤

It's absolutely mind blowing stuff. I am sure, that once I start working on industry-level projects this will help save a lot of time.

Hi Ansh, I am using FIgma since a year to design simple things but after looking at this episode my mind is just like awww.. it is super super useful and way more what I am using for. Thank you for sharing useful insights of figma. Kudos!!

I'm a self learning ux designer and your vdos have been a big part of my learning journey. Please continue the course. It means a lot. Please please please don't stop uploading 🙏😭

you have to continue this! this is brilliant info. Thanks for sharing

Ansh the amount of efforts you put in each and every video is just insane! You teach the stuff we didn't know we needed. This figma series is extremely insightful and i know if i implement to it to the T, combined with your UX/UI series will get to the top of my game. So please keep them coming, Ansh.💟

Your videos help young designers like me a lot. I have started properly documenting everything you teach. Please don't stop uploading videos on this course. Love you bro.❤

Hey Ansh, these videos actually provides a lot of value to us, waiting for the next one :)

Just a little thing, it might happen that the box you are in ( as in the one where you can be seen in in the video ) covers the part of the screen you are working with, if that box could be be moved around when that happens it would be very nice. Also, scooping is absolutely insane. I had been using figma without properly learning it for some projects and now that i am learning it, I realise how everything just sort of adds up. Like all the features make complete sense and are so practically designed. its wonderful to see how amazing the ux team at figma is.

The prototyping bit is blowing my mind! I've watched it like three times and every time you explain the whole thing like you're explaining it to a one year old i lose my mind 😂😂 you're a really great teacher God Bless 🤩

Hi, I'm from Pakistan and just recently discovered your channel. Ever since the release of these Variables feature, I've been banging my head as to why Figma has made itself so complicated. But you've broken it down really well and now I am starting to understand the benefits of using them in large scale products.

Hey Ansh, your content is very helpful to us and for who is thinking to entering in the design industry. you and your team gives a big round of applause 👏 👏. You and your team dedication is next level and you taught me a habit which is like brick of gold and that habit is document your learning. and please guys comment as much as you can..

This is so very useful Ansh. Your explanations are very concise and very easy to understand. I hope you continue this in the future too. Thank you for your efforts :)

Once again, thank you very much for keeping this out! Please Conti... Actually, I've gone through paid course on Udemy but the way you explain it here is really commendable. It's totally different and the points you cover here were not even covered in paid courses.

I am not focusing to learn variables but now i regret that i have to watch the video early thank you for making this amazing playlist

Appreciate the content you're putting in free of a cost

Wow, This episode was the most interesting one among the first five, I'm literally feeling so happy right now. Thank you Ansh for this supper amazing series. I really enjoyed learning about variables, it feels like I don't even need to watch it for second time now 😀. I watched the previous (4th) episode 3 times cause I was stuck on variants but totally worth watching. BTW you guys may unconsciously have not attached the 8th epi. in the playlist.
