Video Description
In this course, design pro Andy Anderson guides you through the basics of working with the Framer prototyping design tool. You'll download the app, explore all of its functionality, use it to design a prototype for an actual Smart Phone App, and then you'll bring that prototype to life. Along the way, you'll pick up the basics of interface design and gain hands-on experience using a very simple prototyping coding tool called CoffeeScript. There are no prerequisites for this course, just the desire to learn.
- Master the basic concepts behind designing and coding prototypes for web sites and apps
- Learn about Framer's design tools; then use them to build a visual prototype for a Smart Phone App
- Explore Framer's coding tool and use it to transform that visual prototype into a working prototype
- Discover the insider tips and shortcuts that speed up the visual prototyping process
- Understand how to export prototypes and share them with others
