Details of the content

Understand mobile UI and UX design and implement it with Sketch
Whether it's an app, website or blog - bring your UI and UX concept to life with Sketch. In this over five-hour video tutorial by trainer Luca Kiedrowski, you will quickly learn all the basics of using the program and then work intensively on an interactive app design sample project .

Why you should watch the Sketch tutorial

You can rely directly on a professional tool for UI and UX design, as Sketch is also used by well-known companies such as Google, Facebook and Apple. Thanks to its intuitive operation, you can quickly learn how to use the program and achieve presentable results in no time at all.

Whether you arrive with or without a design background: The Sketch tutorial is generally ideal for getting started in the field of UI and UX design and specifically for implementing your own app design ideas with Sketch. Basics and application in one!

If you already create designs for web and print (for example with Photoshop or Illustrator): Acquire the ability to transfer your designs and individual elements such as icons or symbols into dynamic and development-ready UI designs. With your expertise in web design, you will add a much (and increasingly) sought-after asset to your CV.

Improve collaboration with web developers: By using Sketch, you prepare user interfaces that are already based on web design rules. As a result, you hand over designs to development that can be implemented directly. In this way, you shorten the path from concept and design to the developed web application enormously.

UI and UX design with Sketch from A to Z

The main focus of the Sketch tutorial is on the practical application of the program, which is available from the provider in a free trial version. Using the example of an app design, your trainer will take you step by step through all the phases, from creating a sketch to the finished UI design. Working materials are included with the tutorial so that you can get stuck in straight away:

First, you roughly sketch out what the user interface of the app should look like later on. Then you work directly on the design. You create the start screen, work with groups, layers and text styles and select suitable icons. You design a chat, help and a user profile, and you learn how to work with libraries, action sheets and effects. At the end, you will have a complete UI design from which you can even create a prototype in the current version 52 of Sketch.

Beforehand, you will learn the most important basics of Sketch and UI design . You will quickly find your way around the user interface, know the most important plugins and tools and know how to use fonts and colors in a targeted manner. Your trainer will also show you when it makes sense to combine Sketch with InVision, for example in the wireframing phase.
