User Interface visual design and prototyping
PMCG-804
Visual design for apps and websites is more than just making something pretty. Digital products are meant to be touched, scrolled and swiped. Creating an attractive and usable prototype can help sell your idea as well as foster valuable user feedback. Using common UI and navigation patterns and components, as well as standard design concepts like typography, color theory and composition, you’ll focus on taking UX artifacts to the final step before development. Use Sketch for visual design and then explore various ways to create low and high fidelity prototypes using tools like Invision and others; learn front-end coding concepts to help you “talk the talk” with developers.
