Top 14 tips I wish I knew as a Beginner UX Designer!
I recorded a video yesterday which is much, much better than this one. However, when I realized I had no audio, I decided to edit this footage instead.
That said, I hope my top 14 tips are short, sweet, and helpful for those just starting out in UX design.
The most significant shift for me has been being kind to users, customers, and the business. We need more empathy for the team and the business we’re operating in. 😄
Alright, without further ado, here are a few books I recommend reading.
1. User Research - Stephanie Marsh
2. Web Form Design - Luke Wroblewski
3. Inspired - Marty Cagan
4. Simple and Usable - Giles Colborne
5. The Mom Test - Rob Fitzpatrick
6. Just Enough Research - Erika Hall
7. Rocket Surgery Made Easy - Steve Krug
8. The Elements of User Experience - Jesse James Garrett
9. Lean UX - Eric Ries
10. Measuring the User Experience - Bill Albert and Tom Tullis
11. Atomic Design - Brad Frost
12. Building for Everyone - Annie Jean-Baptiste
13. Hooked - Nir Eyal
14. Don't Make Me Think - Steve Krug
15. Continuous Discovery Habits - Teresa Torres
16. Sprint - Jake Knapp with John Zeratsky and Brad Kowitz
17. The Design of Everyday Things - Don Norman
18. UX Strategy - Jaime Levy
19. Thinking, Fast and Slow - Daniel Kahneman
20. The Fifth Discipline - Peter M. Senge
There are so many disciplines in UX :D So keep learning.
Also I'll be coming out with a Newsletter soon. Stay tuned :3

What I learned about localization and how you can use it to grow in new markets!
มุมมอง 583 หลายเดือนก่อน
Localization is a fun topic. I heavily researched it while working at another company. In this video, I share a few tips on what to pay attention to when building this out. Similar to accessibility, it's difficult to "localize an app" if it hasn't been thought to do it at the start. So, when you're thinking of eventually scaling, the critical thing to remember is to ensure some form of modulari...

Why I NEED a Knowledge Repository: My Personal Experience!

Hi everyone, this is Anne Reyes from Anne Reyes Designs. Today, my partner and I talked about how difficult it is when my notes are all over the place.

How I got hired for five full-time design roles over the past 14 years!

The title says it all. My first strategy was the spray-and-pray approach. - I was stubborn and persistent - It's almost the definition of insanity. In Dubai, all I did was apply, I had a quota of 10-20 a day while doing my job search, and I would get calls within 1-2 weeks. - When I was trying to find employment in Canada while I was in Dubai, that same strategy didn't work. I applied to 2000 j...
