100 Day Design Challenge

I officially began on February 26, 2017 and completed the design challenge on June 5, 2017. I began with little to no design knowledge, and my goal was to become familiar and quicker with design tools and see how much I've improved from Day 1 all the way to Day 100.

The most valuable lesson I’ve learned in the past 100 days was that designing wasn’t just simply placing nice colours and shapes onto a page. It’s really about solving the greater user experience problem, to provide a seamless, problem-free experience for all users, whether it be within an app or a website.

Day 36 - What Are Your Skills?

Another fun UI to create.

I used the user icons I created at the beginning of my #AndreaDesigns journey as actually users. I took my current skill sets and created skills bar. This page allows users to see other users' skillsets, as well as their experience and contact information located in the other two tabs.

To make the profile a little more personal, I changed the background and tabs colours according to the user's profile. I also added relevant pages a user may want to add under the job title for visitors to see, such as Facebook, Github, LinkedIn, etc.

To clarify, this page is seen by a visitor, and not the user itself. If it's the user itself, there would be edit icons, which will allow the user to personalize their profile. This includes changing the profile picture, adding/removing more social pages, adding/removing skillsets, and more.
