If you're stressing out about Figma and have no idea what Figma skills to master first, then this video is for you. I'll review the 12 key things to master on Figma to stay ahead of the competition and become a better designer. By adopting the skills I cover in this video, you'll communicate better, think clearly, save time, and, most importantly, have a much more professional approach to creating and sharing Figma files with others.
In this video, I'll cover: Figma keyboard shortcuts, nudge amount settings, quick selecting nested objects, fine-tuning your Figma container selections, the importance of Figma auto layout, Figma frames vs. groups, the importance of snap to grid, and why to avoid decimals, keeping your prototypes simple (unless you're an interaction designer), using grids, rulers & measuring your distances, constraints & resizing, using components, and why it's essential to stay up to date.
