I love the fact that this video is edited like a horror movie (sounds and effects when starting each chapter) and how it actually feels like a horror movie when you're a junior at UI (I'm one here, completely terrified but I'm learning. I almost cried on my day one! ). You're content is beyond great, Thank you so much sir!
Thank you! It can be a horror movie but it can also be a horror-comedy mix when you have the right approach! Don't give up, keep going and you'll do great :)
First, I rarely write comments at all, so you can believe this is a special one. Secondly, I want to thank you Michael, you planted a seed of hope in my head and heart that I can still become a good designer. In general, I have been interested in design for the past 5 years, because I am a student of information technology. I have recently been looking for a job, as an old acquaintance wrote to me that he has a job for me, and quite a job, as a mobile designer for iOS. I could not find a place for happiness. And now I have been working on the project for several weeks, slowly but surely. I watch your videos from time to time, I constantly emphasize something for myself, learn new things, correct mistakes. So, thank you very much for gradually helping me and people like me become better in general, and as a designer as well, of course. P.S. I got your e-book, now it's serious, not only youtube videos, maybe I'll even join your hype4academy.
Wow, this video is like striking gold for budding designers! Your advice on using constraints to improve design skills really resonated with me. I found it particularly interesting how you emphasized the importance of simplicity, especially for beginners in their first or second year of learning design. It's refreshing to hear someone stress the significance of mastering the fundamentals before diving into more complex design choices.
I agree! Mastering the fundamentals and embracing simplicity is indeed a valuable approach, especially for beginners in design. Building a strong foundation in design principles, typography, layout, and color theory can set the stage for more advanced and creative work down the road.
I LOVE the "TL;DR: use go-to values that are proven" messaging. Takes away so much decision-making and avoids "weird ideas". I am sure you're going to get roasted for saying some of these things, but from a practical and functional standpoint, this is gold.
I'm all for experiments when people get more comfortable and understand what they do. Before that happens it's literally best to just use 3 colors, 1 typeface, 3 sizes for everything.
This has been an amazing starting point for me. Even though I have an architecture degree and a master's degree in industrial design, this video has been immensely valuable for me. I am trying to get into the field of UX/UI and trying to bring a portfolio together but there is so much to learn. It has been challenging to come up with projects and designing them from the ground up. I can never feel satisfied with my designs and always think there is something missing or off. Thanks to you, the rules I have to follow are already there and I am not that afraid of designing anymore. Subscribed and liked. Please continue what you are doing.
Brilliantly explained! Every beginner should start with this :) I have to read you new ebook because it is worth repeating knowledge to yourself :) All the best! ❤️☀️
Sir, İ appreciate it but it says the length is 7 minutes or so:/ when you said free resourse, I expected a little longer:/ well you are quality over quantity so İ am excited🥳🥳🥳
One doubt that I usually have when I'm going to design a Dashboard for the desktop is the grid, most because I don't know much about code. You could also bring a little more about grids, specifically for mobile and desktop apps, because devs are very grateful when faced with a design obeying the grids 😊😅
I've learned so much from you and appreciate your valuable tips and advice. Thank you for this video and the ebook! I've already used it to enhance my projects.
I'm loving you videos! Can you make one suggesting how to chose colors for modern Front End UI libraries. For example there are a lot of UI libraries in which you can generate website theme by choosing : Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Success, Warning, Error and Surface color. (for example new Material Design, Skeleton UI, ANT UI ... ). Can you suggest safest colors to chose in this case. Thank you
Hi Michal! I have almost 2 years experience in ux ui at a small design agency but I don't have great projects to show in my portfolio. My question is: Do companies actually want real projects which are delivered in previous companies or can I make my own case studies to show? Will this impact my selection? I'm willing to move abroad on visa sponsorship which is very tough still improving my skills from your books. Thank you Michal 🙏 for this amazing material. I never learned much from my experience but I have learnt from your material in a few months and improved my skills.
if you have actual experience you can put in your resume then you're fine - show some projects just to be safe, but that resume with work experience convinces most companies
Hello Michal! First of all, thank you for what you are doing. I signed up for your daily UI challenges and uploaded my first screen. I have a question though. Will you, or other designers review our works, or is it only to train by ourselves? Thanks!
Hey! I don't really have enough time to review everyone's projects, but we do have a slack community where people post their challenges and feedback each other - it's important though to remember to give first before receiving :)
It was free for the first year, now we made it paid (but cheap) so people will avoid fomo-downloads. When you pay a small amount you value what you bought more than when its free.
This was an amazing video, you clearly talked about all the best practices a beginner can use to get better in making amazing, beautiful and consistent UI design, Thank you for this one, would be recommending it to any of my friends that want to kick start their UI career. #UIcheatsheet 🤩
You should not have courses!! You need to have a full university!! 🎓 Everything you do is amazing! 👍🏽 I appreciate all you teach us man! Thank you! 🙏🫶🏼
Amazing video. I have one question. Where you talk about the color in the 10%, it's the color for taking action, and you say not to use red. However, I have a client whose brand and logo are in red. How would you approach this? I was thinking of using the 60/30/10 rule, with white in the 60, using red in the 30 (due to the client's brand), and for the 10, I wanted to use green, but I'm not sure if it blends well, right? Would you prefer using color theory and combining red with blue instead?
@malewiicz I just joined the daily UI challenge and noticed an issue... I mistakenly uploaded the wrong design and there's no way to edit and upload the right image before the timeline elapses. If this was intentional please can you explain the reason why it's so. Thank you. I really hope you respond.
Tried to download the book. It wasn't free. Went to pay it took me in circles. Tried to sign up for the program and it took me in circles. Nothing worked! 😢
I tried to download this book and put code 0 and it does not work. It tells me it is not possible and this message appears. "Sorry, the discount code you wish to use is invalid" is there any website to download it
oh i've been naughty and done a case study that features an app with a #F6EEEE background... may need to use that specific case study for a review :\ hah
Haha that's ok! It's not that it's impossible to pull it off, it's just a little harder so without guidance it's easier to do something wrong. But I bet you did it fine anyway :)
@@MalewiczHype thank you so much. I would do just that. Please I would like you to help review my design portfolio as am currently seeking for an international remote job and would like to improve my portfolio.
This is an automatic way of gumroat to handle parity - I know it sounds stupid but it's beyond my control. This book was free for many months and it only recently was made paid instead because I believe fomo is too big of a thing,.
It was free for the first 8 months after release. Now it's not free anymore because I believe paying even a little (and it is cheap) actually makes people read it and try to understand it. The effect is better.
@@MalewiczHypethank you so much sir for your precious reply maybe. Someday I can meet with you a pure ui design angel a master real dragon master of ui design 🎉 god bless you ❤️ love you 😊
