You're going to be seeing a lot more design content from me over the next few months as I take part in the extensive @shiftnudge UI design program.
Will post my HW here for accountability, progress tracking & maybe as an example for others.
Unfollow if this will annoy you😄🤜🤛

I just completed @shiftnudge 🎉
WHAT. A. COURSE.
I concur with the dozens of reviews calling this the best, most comprehensive design thing out there. I've levelled up beyond what I thought possible in such a short time.
Thank you for creating this masterpiece, @mds 🤝

Been a lit lack lustre with my @shiftnudge HW as I was creating the UI for a new SaaS👀
Thoroughly enjoyed seeing how levelled up my design has become thanks to everything I've learnt from @mds

Task: Design a small card that will serve as a mini-guide for a family of buttons.

Category: Subtlety is Key
Task: Study the subtlety of great design around you.
Overwhelming with design elements is NOT the way. Strip it back to solid fundamentals then add spice.
