@ohmdreams
was feeding my curiosity by asking this one super cool designer on how to get started with ui/ux (with taste). and these are the actionables:
→ "20-30% of any tool gets 80% of the work done. Stop trying to master everything before you start."
→ "Tools are not to be scared of. You figure out new things everyday as you go."
→ "The ultimate goal is to make big money at the end, always. No shame in that."
→ "Stay away from Twitter inspo. Build your own vision."
→ "start with TYPOGRAPHY. strong type skills make everything else easier."
→ "next: learn proportions and ratios of all elements in respect to each other and the frame."
→ "sit with one frame for 10 hours. deep work beats surface-level practice."
→ "don't juggle tools. for websites: figma intermediate first, framer later, photoshop on backburner."
→ "figma progression: shapes, text, colors, gradients, effects, auto layout → components → variables last."
→ "read about design theory while practicing." (he recommended doc.cc)
