Looking for guidance, advice and discussion with knowledgeable minds on UI/UX learning.
Hey all. Hope you’re all managing to stay safe.
In this time of enforced inertia and due to having become a financial victim of this COVIDity, I’m looking to expand my horizons and mind.
Looking for any advice on good online courses and any essential reading/watching/absorbing through osmosis to get a handle on UX/UI as a discipline. Not necessarily learning an actual app (XD for example), but more the theoretical principles and intellectual arguments.
On a superficial scanning of various posts, it feels like something one considers as part of the creative process in most cases anyway but I’m intrigued by the formalisation or UI/UX.
Let me know.

- Hey Rebecca and EstelaThanks so much for your responses.Sorry about the delay in responding, I’ve been enduring an 6 hour battle with out internet service at home.Anyway...Rebecca thanks for the recommendation. I’m definitely going to be checking out that book and I’ll have a look at the course link as well.Estela will keep an eye on your blog sounds like it will be a fascinating source.I’m pretty new too the idea of UX/UI as independent areas of focus, so not sure how much of a contribution I would make to a discussion. However love the idea of virtually kicking thoughts around if people have the time and inclination. Wouldn’t want anyone to waste precious time at the moment.
- I'd really reccomend resources like Treehouse (similar to skillshare) and Smashing Magazine's books. I'm in a similar situation as you and just trying to learn as much as I can.Coming from a design perspective, I'd reccomend this book on design systems and how they link into branding: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/printed-books/design-systems/Hope that helps!
