🚨 Update Notice 🚨

It's been over a year since I made the Figma course. As I've been working on the job, the updates have been delayed. Recently, various functions have been updated to match the new year of 2025. ( Some of the content has been used as is in the existing video as long as it does not interfere with learning .)

🌈 Figma Class Basic

Hello. Figma is a new browser-based design tool. It has been out for several years, but it is a design tool that has not been properly covered in Korea.

There are various needs for new design tools, and now is the time to choose the right tool for you and design it yourself, rather than having to force yourself to get used to it.

A good design tool itself does not improve the quality of a design or enhance skills, but if used well, it can complement a designer's shortcomings.

There are so many different tools available, and it is a time when there is a lot of concern about which tool to choose depending on the company, individual, environment, and collaboration relationship. It is literally the Warring States period of design tools.

Let's start together and complete it together so that we don't fall behind while building our skills during this transitional period and making those skills our own.

🎓Class 01 - Step by step from the basics

It is important to learn any tool from the basics step by step. If the basics are not well-established, the tower will easily collapse. Why? How? The first agenda of the class Figma Breakdown, which starts from these questions, is 'establishing the basics'. Figma is an excellent vector-based design tool. There is a new concept of vector tool that has not been seen in existing design tools.

🎓Class 02 - Hands-on drawing of various screen components

Now that you know the basics about various shapes and how to use them, let's get started drawing simple icons and components.

Learn 100% how to create and utilize the basic 'style' of component reuse. You can learn step by step from the very basics.

🎓Class 03 - Design a familiar mobile app UI.

We will compose the screen by creating the basic structure of a familiar mobile app. The design mainly used here is the Google MATERIAL design structure.

🎓Class 04 - Drawing familiar mobile app UI and designing components

Learn how to use basic components in Figma by familiarizing yourself with Figma while drawing familiar mobile apps.

The music app that will be completed in the basic course will be created with images and content removed. Try completing it by arranging images and icons yourself :)

🙋🏻‍♂️ I have a question!!

Q. This is my first time learning design. Will it be difficult?

A. This is a lecture that even non-design majors can easily take. This class is offered at levels from beginner to intermediate.

Q. Why is it good to learn Figma?

A. Figma is not an old design tool. Using frames instead of artboards means that Figma designs ‘movements’ differently from existing design tools. Microinteractions become important, and transition effects can provide higher usability.

Q. Is it possible to use a Windows PC?

A. Figma is a browser-based tool. It works on all operating systems. Mac, Linux, Windows, Chrome, etc. :)

Hello! Everybody, this is 'Yeonnam-dong Lee Jae-yong'

I wrote a book about sketch apps called 'Delicious Sketch' in 2017. It's a poorly written book that didn't sell as well as the amount of effort I put into it 😢😢 While running an IT company, I got to know design tools, and as a designer, I enjoy sharing the accumulated know-how and creating better ideas while completing my designs into actual app services.

Recently, I wrote a book called FIGMA Guidebook and I'm going to explain the contents of the book :) This is a lecture directly from the author!

I fully understand the feeling of being overwhelmed when you first encounter Figma. If you follow along slowly and step by step, you will soon become an expert.

Start now. There is a huge difference between those who start and those who don't.
