Built for Mars case studies is a treasure trove. I am in awe by how some of the best companies - in regards to seamless UX experiences - make simple mistakes. It simply proves that UX is a never ending building process. Just like writing, it can always be improved.
@builtformars Amazing work. What would you recommend for someone who have a programming background and want to learn design to enchance UX experience of indie products/startups? I think of the space between elements, layout, getting right fonts, colors, order of what to do first and next and training design sense - if it's possible to be learned at all. I found myself struggling with making any design decisions, and blank canvas just terifies me, rather than sparks creativity.
@builtformars@farynaio Thanks, great to hear from you.
So that's a difficult question to answer. I think I have a controversial opinion that UI design and UX design are two very separate skills. As an example, I'm really not very good at UI design, but have done my 10,000 hours crafting 'experiences'.
There are a bunch of great resources on the web to help you learn, plenty on this site too, so I'd just try and practice as much as possible, and then read UX resources that are inspiring to you.
I know that's not a 'silver bullet' answer, but it's like learning a language—it takes practice and a conscious effort to get better.
Good luck!
I subscribed instantly when I stumbled upon Built for Mars Case Studies. There is just something about learning through examples and I think the overall industry needs more things like this and less design thinking theory.
