Our one day course covers advanced features you can use to add more functionality and complexity to your prototypes.
Learn how to utilise a range of animation techniques to create dynamic designs, including animated text masks and animated gradient backgrounds.
Discover how to build a design system using variables and tokens, allowing you to store reusable values and apply them across designs.
We also cover boolean variables, which allow different design variants to be displayed based on a button click or checkbox interaction.
Private and bespoke courses are also available.
