Hi Product Hunters, Colin here representing the Uxcel team! We’re on a mission to make learning UX/UI design a fun and interactive experience. At the moment, our focus is on teaching design definitions and best practices, and we accomplish this with a healthy dose of gamification and microlearnings. Our journey began last year on Instagram. We’d research UX/UI design best practices, create an animated A/B exercise with a countdown timer, and explain the details once time ran out. The experiment blew up, and users started asking us to productize the idea. We’re now several months out of private beta and looking forward to what the Product Hunt community thinks. Here’s the quick product gist of Uxcel... 🎓 Courses offer a structured path to design learning. They take around 5-6 hours to finish and comes with a shareable certificate on completion. 👁 UEye Arcade offers design games created to train your eye. 📅 Weekly Challenge brings the community together to learn around a common subject. We created a very special Weekly Challenge just for Product Hunt! We are still very much in the initial stages, and your feedback is invaluable to us. Please check out Uxcel and let us know what you think! We currently only offer a web app, but it’s a PWA, so it’s easy to save to your home screen. Thank you again for your time, and we’re all eagerly awaiting your constructive criticism!

If like me, you’ve been waiting for someone to gameify UX/UI learning and testing then this is 100% worth a go! It’s one of the things that helped during the pandemic when general application was too much but I wanted to stay involved. Great product, great team and customer service! Don’t be afraid to send them suggestions, they truly are looking to create a greater user experience, for learning user experience!

For me, Uxcel is learning... That's what I thought when I first visited the platform. Now this is learning through play, competition, communication with like-minded people and, of course, participation in the discussion of new ideas. This is a platform that I want to come to again and again, because every day I see great updates. I want to say a special thanks to the team. They experiment, analyze, conduct surveys, they are ready for new ideas from the users' side and are attentive to every opinion. I think this is what a design learning platform should be.

Gene Kamenets

I was looking for an online game which would sharp my UI Designing skills. I came across this Uxcel on Instagram and later they made a web app which includes very interactive games and courses. A small paragraph is not enough to admire uxcel. But I love this product will buy pro later.

@rushabh_pathak1 it's so wonderful to connect with the community that first started with us on Instagram! It's been a journey, and we've got a long road ahead of us, so thank you! Any suggestions on what we can improve?

It's great to see another study tool that uses gamification to fulfill its purpose. There is nothing greater than learning and having fun in the process. A beneficial and enjoyable learning tool like no other, which teaches you how to create a clean and functional UI, that leads to an amazing UX afterwards! Good job and I hope to see you grow to infinity and beyond!

@dawny thank you for the kind words!
