Hey Product Hunt friends! 👋🏼 We made these UX Challenges so that designers can learn and practice crucial UX skills. There are too many clichéd UI exercises out there. These challenges are different: 👩🏻‍💻 Based in the real world. This isn't another or "create an ATM for a centaur." Every exercise looks like a project you'd get in real life. 🛠 Practice important skills. UX is more than just UI. Each challenge helps you understand and train a specific UX skill like card sorting or usability testing. 💪 Stop reading: try UX. Nothing improves design skills faster than doing design work. Practice solving problems and see what real UX work is like. 💼 Get tangible takeaways. Have fun with mini projects, then walk away with a deliverable to put in your portfolio or use as a talking point in interviews. Each challenge has a real-world scenario, a task aimed at helping you practice a specific skill, hand-picked references if you need help, and recommended tools. Follow along on 🐦 : we'll be re-sharing and posting feedback for people who share their completed challenges there. Let us know what you think! Will you take on one of the challenges? Cheers, Jordan & Taylor
Cool idea! Thanks a lot
I'm not a designer but I must design. I like your project, i will try it :D
Maker
Great Ayberk, let us know what you think when you try it out!
Maker
That one of the reasons we made it—you don't have to be a designer to want to get better at design!
Simple and actually useful.
Maker
💥 Thanks Zaryab!

"Actually useful" is my new favorite way to describe this 😄
This is something I would actually use to improve my designs skills. Even being a developer I think some design skills definitely helps to improve product overall. 🙂
Maker
That's awesome Subhendu, glad you'll find it useful. Totally agree that design skills can be great for a developer to learn (and vice versa 😉).
Maker
I really love the idea of developers using this to practice. Thanks!
The whole idea is stunning 💪 Congrats on the launch!
Maker
Thank you Thalion, appreciate you taking an early look and giving us feedback 😉
Actually, it's even super useful for non-designers. I like your hand-picked tutorial recommendations. Nice work!
Maker
Thanks Michael! Who else do you see working these? Maybe product managers?
Product Manager definitely, but also for marketing/growth team members and customer success reps.
Maker
Ah yeah, that makes sense!
I just love project based approach to learning, what you get is far mor valuable than practical skills, cause you get real portfolio. Do you have to know Figma or any toole to start learning?
Maker
We love project based learning as well Mateusz. You don't have to know Figma (or Sketch, Adobe XD) to do many of these challenges. You can use an easier-to-learn tool like Miro for lots of them!
This is really amazing tool to improve your UX design skills. Actually very useful for UX Designers looking for practical exercises. Congrats!
Maker
Thank you Aman! Our aim was to make it as useful as possible.
It is a really useful and unbelievable resource for people who want to improve their design skills. Congrats!!
Maker
