Applied Learning Project
Throughout this Specialization, you’ll complete a series of hands-on projects designed to mirror real-world UX/UI work. You'll begin by building a responsive landing page using advanced layout tools, then transform it into a dynamic multi-screen prototype with video, animation, and interactivity. Later, you'll enhance your design with advanced typography, masks, and media elements. Finally, you’ll systemize everything using tokens and variables, and prepare a polished handoff using Dev Mode. These projects result in a portfolio-ready UX case study that showcases your design thinking, technical mastery, and ability to deliver high-quality user interfaces.
