What a journey it has been!
I'm so glad I found the community right when I first started venturing into design.
Met so many great community members who I now call friends, friends who've been so supportive of my journey. I've found motivation during hard times in witnessing their journeys as well.
And having a home for endless design lessons, talks, live sessions, feedbacks, and resources that I never would've been able to find myself is just an awesome perk on top of the community aspect.
To think that it's not yet even been a year since this community started is mind-blowing.
I'm so excited and all-in on what's to come next!
I find the community that Fons has nurtured to be genuinely incredible. Each member is immensely welcoming and helpful and shares a dedication towards self-improvement and a common mindset. What strikes me most is their commitment to providing detailed feedback. In fact, some members go above and beyond, creating custom Figma files to better illustrate their points and exhibiting an admirable willingness to go the extra mile for assistance. This vibrant community has grown to feel like a home to me—a place I must remind myself to visit more often!
This is an amazing community, I have been following @fonsmans on Twitter for a while. Learned so much from him, not only he's an amaze visual designer but also has great business sense.
Designers can't just stick to one skill of design, but should have a wider scope of knowledge. It was usually seen as a "change in career", which I hope changes designers' mindset to always keep learning. Love it. PS: your website is insanely cool.
I think 10X Designers looks like a great resource for designers who want to improve their skills and learn from other professionals. The community offers a variety of live and asynchronous activities, including workshops, lessons, member deals, design crits, office hours, community challenges, 1:1 mentoring, and a project board. There is also a strong emphasis on networking and collaboration, which can be really helpful for designers who are looking to advance their careers.
