As a UX Designer, I’m constantly reading UX articles, playing with new tools, watching videos, and looking at amazing portfolios – I wanted an outlet to share. Lately, I’ve been inspired by other curated daily and weekly emails and wanted to create one dedicated to user experience design. Let me know what you think...
One of my New Year’s resolutions was to develop an app. I’m a UX designer by day so by no means was this going to be easy for me but I’m happy to report that my app was approved yesterday.
Here’s what I learned from the experience:
1. find a few good resources in different formats - bought a book, took a course on udemy, browsed different sites - this helped me learn in different ways and i was able to see what was most important to learn and different ways to do the same thing
2. stop reading. start doing - learned the most when I actually started coding and solving real problems. Made a few stupid, rookie bugs on the way.
3. don’t start from zero - saved lots of time by finding libraries to use from cocopods & github. stack overflow was was a godsend.
Would love for you to check it out and offer any suggestions/improvements.
the wallaby card sounds pretty awesome. i just checked out their mobile app and tested a few places out and the rewards were accurate on my Chase Freedom (which has rotating categories each quarter).
