Design with Code - Free course for designers on how to build with code and AI

by
As design process moves into code, it becomes more critical for designers to understand how things are actually built. Not to become engineers, but to build the right mental models and confidence to work with code and AI tools. This course teaches the essentials of web development and practical concepts with a focus on UI and craft, but without the overwhelming depth of typical coding courses. It covers tools such as Git, Terminal, HTML, CSS, SVG, React, Typescript, Tailwind, Astro, and Next.js.

Hi PH, the creator of Design with Code here 👋 I built this course because I kept feeling the gap myself. And I strongly believe designers need this knowledge today more urgently than ever before. In my design career, I started getting closer to code many years ago. First small tweaks, then prototypes, then actually shipping things. At many points I realized I didn’t really understand what was going on under the hood, and most coding courses were either too deep or just not made for someone like me. So I started learning on my own, picking only what felt useful. Over time it clicked, and it changed how I design entirely, how I work with engineers, and how I use AI today. This course is basically what I wish I had back then.
