Designing Foodsnap app design in Figma, Learn how to make application design within an hour and add the project mockup and prototype in your portfolio.
Course Description
In this course you will be making one project for your portfolio and that will help you in polishing your creativity and skills.
Real-time file collaboration helps mitigate “design drifting”—defined as either misinterpreting or straying from an agreed-upon design. Design drifting usually happens when an idea is conceived and quickly implemented while a project is in progress. Unfortunately, this often leads to deviating from the established design, causing friction and re-work.
Using Figma, a design lead can check in to see what the team is designing in real-time by simply opening a shared file. If a designer somehow misinterprets the brief or user story, this feature allows the design lead to intervene, correct course, and save countless hours that would have otherwise been wasted. (By comparison, teams using Sketch have no immediate way of telling if designers are going astray.)
Side note: Some designers don’t like to be “spied on” when they’re working, so it’s up to the design lead to explain the benefits. In general, most designers quickly see the value in such a feature and easily adapt to working in a shared environment.
Even though Figma is browser-based there are desktop version for both Windows and Mac OS. Presumably these are wrap applications which are running a browser inside them, but whether that’s the case or not, Figma is always running online within those apps.
Note: If you do lose connectivity you can still keep working on any document you already had open.
