Challenge
In this class, we were challenged to adhere to an 8 point grid, learn the importance of using frames instead of groups, master auto-layout, creating and using components, create a variable system (including primitives and tokens) as well as how to establish proper file hygiene and organization in Figma.
For each design prompt, we had to prove this mastery by creating designs that adhered to certain requirements and a given timeline, usually one or two weeks. For example: "Design a pricing page using a certain design style (example of design style was provided) while only using frames and auto-layout."
