During this workshop, we learnt how to do a simple lock opening animation on Figma. At first, I was a bit taken aback because I expected Figma to be a lot more similar to Adobe XD, but at a first glance, it was quite different, which I found difficult to…
This week marked a shift toward feeling more comfortable and adjusted to the course and university life after being away for four months. The initial week was somewhat challenging as I acclimated, but this week, I started to feel settled and more confident in moving forward. It was also less…
