This seems like a great conversation with both developers and designers. As a developer, I'm not having trouble learning about new tools on the developer side of things. But I'm struggling to learn about Figma and Sketch.
Do any developers in this conversation have advice or tutorials that were effective in teaching them how to use Figma or Sketch, or perhaps just be effective in integrating artifacts from those tools that others on the team are using?
- jjeaff 6y agoI guess everyone learns differently, but for me, the best way to learn a visual gui tool is to just use it. Click around and try things and sure, sometimes you have to hunt for a feature or a quick search to figure out how to do something specific, but then the next time around, things will go quicker.
- mrzimmerman 6y agoSketch has a lot of very easy to use and understand documentation about their features that helped me learn it. I’ll say this: start learning about symbols early and use them to their fullest. It’s like working with components and they are very powerful. I find them to Ed e the most intuitive part of you’re coming from a UI engineering background.
