The current task we’re working on in HNG choke o embarassed
I’ve been doing a lot of reading/research and everything is difficult because we don’t have a PM..It’s quite easy to be a UI designer but you see that UX part, it’s hardddddd.

HNG is an internship they don't train there, they simulate real-work environment. I would advise you learn the fundamentals or wait for zuri training next year.
i was a product of zuri before i joined HNG

How many years experience did you have when you joined Zuri? And how will you recommend the internship for newbies?

Zuri is just for three months. It's great, you'd get to work on the fundamentals and work on a real life project.
Re: Tips and Tricks in Design. UI/UX Designers, Gather Here!!! by Emeraldfynest(m): 2:22am On Sep 03, 2021
Ok thanks, but I will need to have some experience right, or go into it as a complete newbie,?

Na. It's for newbies and totally free. You just need laptop and data.
I think their next cohort would be next year.
You can follow their Twitter handle on @zuri.team for updates

This is long o..
I'll try to keep it short as possible.

Depending on the brand you are working for, there's something called color psychology, you cant use red for a banking sector and expect people to trust you and like green now denotes life, fertility. etc

read on color psychology and how the color wheel operates, the complementary colors, analogous, triads, etc it will help you when you want to combine them.

first have a base color that defines the brand, then, have like two other colors that goes with it, could be triads. it will be much easier like that.

there will be a base color, a mid one and an accent color, for a start anyway.

then if the brands have their own color, good for you, just find colors that compliments it, you can use Adobe color (a site) to pick colors too.
