Course 03 of 13
Product Design
Design apps and websites people find easy to use. Product design is the work of deciding how a digital product should look, feel and behave. You learn to understand the people you are designing for, then turn that understanding into screens and flows that make sense.
In plain words
A product designer is to an app what an architect is to a house: they decide how it should work for the people living in it before anyone builds it.
Prefer to listen? Hear this course explained in about a minute.
Every app on your phone was designed by someone who decided where each button goes, what happens when you tap it, and how to make it feel easy. That person is a product designer.
You learn to find out what people actually need, sketch ideas on screen, and turn them into designs that look good and make sense. It is creative work, but it is not about being able to draw. It is about solving problems for real people. No coding is needed.

- Banks, fintech and other app companies
