Figma Tutorial for Beginners (2024): Website Design

[@jeffbeaudoin4544]

I like that she never drifts into self-talk. She's always teaching, speaks directly to her listener, and does a great job of explaining what and why and how.

[@FluxAcademy]

Thanks Jeff!

[@KhanyaManusual-fh9xt]

Who is she?? I would also like to see her previous work

[@Michelle-tx1gc]

Maddy is such a talented designer and comprehensive teacher. I hope flux academy works with her more often to create cool, modern designs like this rather than standard/less stylish design tutorials. Thanks for this!

[@FluxAcademy]

Thanks Michelle

[@RB-yw1tt]

WE NEED MORE VIDEOS LIKE THESEEEEE

[@rameenana]

Thanks for this, sister. You we’re going at a good pace, explained well, and most importantly didn’t waste time by talking irrelevant stuff. Appreciate your work.

[@FluxAcademy]

Thanks for the feedback and kind words 🙏❤️

[@breynerjimeneznoy]

Thanks a lot. This is great for someone who's just getting started with Figma. I loved how you made each element look clean and aligned.

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jhaakon8137]

This was a solid beginner course. It covered the basics. This was fun and I like how simple Figma is. Thank you for your time of gathering all the resources and putting this together.

[@FluxAcademy]

We love to hear this feedback!

[@ramoshabagabriel9427]

This is gold. Best best class I ever attended. Thank you🙌🏼

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad to hear it was helpful for you! 🙏

[@fabioguarini2591]

We need more of this, video is just perfect and the way how your'e teaching it is also just lovely, great job!

[@FluxAcademy]

Thank you!

[@salentipy]

This is very well-done! I'll definitely be looking into more of her videos.

[@taviux511]

Very nice Tutorial! thank you so much for sharing! very understandable from start to finish and I will agree she is just on point all the way.

[@tijana5650]

By far the best channel for learning 😍

[@FluxAcademy]

Thank you 🙏

[@gdj777]

Thank you. Auto-layout practice series...it does take practice.

[@andreiaaraujo2980]

Funny how this lovely lady explained way way better in a free youtube video how figma works comparing with the payed version course on flux academy which is expensive 😞 normally i dont do bad reviews but i feel stupid.

[@kasper369]

How much would you charge for such work? curious

[@petrusmiguel776]

THANKYOU MADDIE! YOUR MY FAVORITE ❣❣❣

[@FluxAcademy]

We like her too! 😊

[@geishagrrrl1]

Frikkin love how Maddie just does the damn thing! 💖✨🙏🏾

[@DesignGenie-cv1cn]

I really love this tutorial and already planning on buying her web design ecommerce course. Will maddie be doing any UX/UI tutorials? Would love to learn how she lays everything out for a mobile app and hopefully with case studies.

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad you enjoyed! Just a note, Maddy's course focuses on Figma for Web Designers; not e-commerce or UX/UI from a product design perspective.

[@DesignGenie-cv1cn]

@@FluxAcademy I know i bought the course and loving it. Im doing the certificate for the course now. I was just saying maybe in the future she maybe could make one because i like how she breaks everything down.

[@FluxAcademy]

@@DesignGenie-cv1cn ah, got it. Glad to hear you're enjoying the course!

[@denzel1521]

loved every moment of this! followed every step but instead of using white for the icons I used the orange from the images and removed the hamburger icon

[@FluxAcademy]

Love to hear! Thanks Denzel

[@dunkley7776]

This was excellent! Thank you all involved!

[@FluxAcademy]

Our pleasure!

[@hassansyed6087]

Excellent video. I took alot of detailed notes on proper spacing and grid layout Just had a quick question in regards to your choice of spacing I noticed that most figma design practices encourage an 8 point grid system. Your homepage had a spacing of 40px from the device frame to the first block of text. The grid system encourage 32px or multiples of 8 but you used 40px Any specific reason you chose 40px first and then 100px on the second page? thanks!

[@nocomplyyy]

finished it, finally im ready to become a ui/ux designer

[@RickyXX22]

Pls how did you get the starting files i cant find it

Question on timestamp: 10:51, do you recommend using frames instead of sections? Thank you for the great tutorial!

[@MeezanTheFairBloke]

Really cool tutorial, thanks for that!

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad you liked it!

You mentioned something about a course being linked in the description below

[@FluxAcademy]

Added the link now, thank you! 🙏 Here it is for you: bit.ly/3C14DWl

[@jonathanezl]

it would be great if you could export it to webflow and publish/deploy it ... kind of making the "end to end" process more transparent,

[@FluxAcademy]

Thanks for that feedback!

[@jonathanezl]

@@FluxAcademy oh thank you for answering me :D ! of course once designed, do the process of how to connect a domain and publish the site; in the course you offer, do you have those processes ?

[@FluxAcademy]

Have a look at our "Learn Web Design For Beginners" video that was published recently.

[@thisgurlgotrizz]

thank you so much gurll

[@deepak8586]

Amazing tutorial! would like to where you got the images they are soo cool!!

[@tobiaslehning]

Hi from Sweden! Just a curious question... Why do you use a navigation -menu AND a hamburger menu? I thought webpages should use a navbar and when resize to mobile it will turn into the hamburger-menu?

[@FluxAcademy]

Hi Tobias 👋, Although we have seen people use both on Desktop, you are correct; the convention is as you describe.

[@RevelynMaeOnrejas]

Nice video! I would like to know the name of the fonts used for paragraph? Thanks!

[@cleanpagedesign543]

This is a great tutorial, especially how you use the frames and the auto layout. One thing I found really frustrating, though, is how you add the image backgrounds to frames. You have them stored on your computer so you can select them in the finder to replace the glasses images in the product cards. I can't get the images that are on the artboard to replace the images in the product cards. Is there a way to do this, or do you need to have the images stored locally so you can get them via your finder?

[@RickyXX22]

Please how can i get the starting files i really want to follow along already clicked on the help, also wrote my email address but have not gotten any feed back

[@T-Wali]

I think giving the second picture, the one with the girl wearing glasses, rounded corners wasn't necessary; you could have gone with square corners instead.

[@2theyea]

Hmm the figma file isn't popping up on the website :/ Otherwise, awesome video flux team~

[@samduss4193]

I study this all and i start to wonder if company really use figma for webbuilding as much

[@jilsonjoseph-m6w]

its a landing page right

[@jessicaladd85]

Total newb here. How do I make sure I can click on each "layer" in a section, without actually using the layers panel? It must be a setting of some kind and I cannot figure it out. TIA!!!

[@justinernest2363]

So once the design is done do you use this as a blueprint for how you code the html/css? Or is there another way that is done on how the web page is actually made?

[@FluxAcademy]

Yes. Figma is used for the "design" phase. Then a website needs to be "developed."

[@TâmNgô-b6r]

9:18 What shortcut to align center?

[@mimitoo3308]

Why the default width and height of the desctop frame is 1440x1024 and not 1920x1080? Is it more useful or easy? I am new to figma and I was just curious.

[@lesambriz6879]

where's the link for the other tutorial Maddy mentioned it? she said it what's on the description but it's not.

[@FluxAcademy]

Hi, are you referring to the course that she mentions at the end?

[@jumanjimedia6324]

Looking to start web design would you recommend Photoshop or just stick with figma

[@FluxAcademy]

Figma for web design. Photoshop (or alternatives) for image editing.

[@diaarraaa]

she explains it so well , love the content !! thanks🤍

[@Amathylar]

Can I hire you guys to design my website?

[@jvss_2306]

This video made me realize i 'm disorganized as fudge heellp

[@mattjohnson3058]

I made it so far until I hit the auto frame on the card. I can't get it to align the two text items below the product name. Instead it jumps one onto the same line as the product name. (26:27) 🥴

[@shockjay]

When I turn on the "Auto Layout" at 26:58 it kicks my "$324 USD" up so that it is in line with "INTELLIGENT GLASSES", and I am unable to move it.

[@jeremytodd77]

Your tutorials are great but you move too fast on some steps and you don't explain some things, seemingly assuming we have some basic knowledge of Figma (not a beginner like you say) which requires me to go back again and again to see the moves you made to make the frames for the icons, for example. This ends up being frustrating to follow along with.
