Design

I was working as both a developer and the designer for this project. It has been a challenging task to design, but an incredible learning experience. Using tools such as Figma and Sketch, my goal was to deliver rapid-prototypes and turn them into high-fidelity mockups as fast as possible and then iterate once we had user feedback. This approach made us more agile since we didn't have to wait a long time for new designs.
