Freelance designers: how long did it take from the day you started learning design to getting your first client?
Great tip here on finding live websites to redesign ⬇️
Honestly, it's a story.😂
@nickfloats had mentioned about this website in a recent Design & Thrive space about AI - @RossHatton
The website is a directory of recent AI tools.
I felt that most landing page designs, were......uhm less appealing.
So, just figured I will give them redesigns. Here is the link to the website:
futuretools.io/
My current design reading stack:
• Design for Hackers
• Steal Like an Artist
• The Art of Noticing
• The Anatomy of Type
• Refactoring UI
What's yours?
Do you ever use events in Framer to trigger changes to a component?
I think I've only used them once, might do a quick tutorial on them if it's something of interest 🤔
2️⃣ WhatFont
My go-to for finding typography info on websites. Just hover on top of some text and you'll find info on the typeface used, the color and size.
chromewebstore.google.com/de…
3️⃣ Go Full Page
This easy-to-use extension takes full-page screenshots of websites.
I use this every day to collect screenshots for my swipe file and as a reference for my daily copying practice.

Chrome extensions are the secret weapon for learning web design ⚔️
They help you find inspiration, learn how websites are made, and much more.
Here are my top 3 recommendations ⬇️
1️⃣ Designer Daily Report
This is my all-time resource for design inspo. Every day you get new links, typography, palettes, branding etc. All from the comfort of your tab.

Is there a thing like advent of code but for design?
Basically something like 24 little design challenges for December
