What really matters for companies hiring UI designers?
In reality the most common things UI designers do are pretty "boring". It's a set of components like inputs, buttons, cards and list views arranged and re-arranged into many different configurations.
☝️ THIS is what matters to a business hiring a designer! Not their flashy Dribbble skills.
I've noticed many juniors lack these fundamentals and when time comes to design something real they're lost and confused.
They may know how to design a button or a dropdown, but their components like consistency and proper hierarchy.
With this course you'll learn the fundamentals of creating a beautiful, consistent and thought-out component set - a skill that companies REALLY want from UI designers.
You will learn:
- How to plan your fonts, colors and sizes
- How to set up a soft-grid for your components
- Creating beautiful buttons, inputs, checkboxes and more
- Crafting lists, cards and other often used components
- Mastering hierarchy through spacing and typography (🚨 the most important part!)
- Combining the components into full interfaces

I was recommended this resource by my manager to improve me work more cross-functionally with the product team - this has helped me a lot, and I particularly like the way they communicate quite abstract concepts.
