How to Use Symbols in Sketch - Sketch: Noob to Master, ep6
Episode 6: How to Use Symbols in Sketch
In this video I'll show you the key principles, reasoning and methods for using symbols in Sketch app. Symbols act as a smart component that can be altered per instance. Because of its flexibility and simplicity it's priceless when it comes to setting up design systems, reusable pattern libraries and more.
Sketch is a go-to app for UI, Product(UX/UI) and other graphical vector based editing to shape the user experience. With a lightning fast mockup capabilities, simplicity, prototyping and powerful collaboration tools, Sketch has everything you need to turn your ideas into incredible products. Join me for a zero to hero masterclass and learn how to design apps, UIs and use the tool to its fullest.
In this latest instalment of UX portfolio reviews, I'll walk through the latest viewer submission which covers the junior designer's UX portfolio and a couple of case studies. One thing that is very common for junior UX, product and UI designers is over-designing the portfolio itself. In this video, I'll highlight why that might backfire when it's viewed by design hiring managers.
Sometime back I asked my viewers if there's anyone who would like to get their UX portfolios reviewed and shared with the broader audience. While it must be daunting to put it out there, constructive feedback and specific pointers can make all the difference. Would you like your UX design portfolio to be reviewed with constructive pointers? Drop me a line.
I recently also created a playlist that contains all my videos on UX portfolios here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLM2Dd2NIn2Co0dXW7ySkIQEl-8zMcrQiP

Session #43: Repeaters and how you can add custom list or grid items
In this session we'll dive deeper into a specific use case for using Axure repeaters. As mentioned in my previous video on repeater feature - it's severely underrated one, especially when it comes to making smart product lists, account lists etc. And in this video we will cover exactly that - how to simulate a high fidelity prototype for account management feature. Watch how you can too add custom and infinite entries to predefined template.

Session #85: Dynamic Language Switch in UX Prototype
In this session, I'll show you the easiest way to make dynamic information switch. Specifically, I'll showcase a language switch for a single UI page that allows users to swap two languages at any point. Using global variables as unique value containers, the text change is done completely asynchronously.

Episode 37: Best Starter Kit for a New Design System?
This week’s pick: Details design system. A kit that I've used to start scalable and powerful UI and product design systems in an Atomic Design framework for quite some time. Details kit provides a simple yet structured starter for any designer to customise. Better yet, you can download Sketch and/or Figma version of their Atoms (and some of the molecules) for free. It doesn't get better than this, especially if you've been planning to create a decent system for one of your products or services.
Note: we're not affiliated with the tool makers. It's just a great UX tool you should know about.
In this new weekly UX design, user research and product design tools series I'll share some of the best picks I've encountered to date. You'll find out about the best apps, extensions, websites and other helpful tools.

Time for another Livestream, but this time it's going to be a slightly different session: we will test the brand new and truly stunning Midjourney text-to-image AI art generation capabilities. It's clear that this development alone will transform and make UX and content design fully inclusive, generative, and mind-blowingly human.
Future of UX design with AI and how product and UI designers will out-automate themselves with increasing investment into design systems
