How do you handle UX Design? (programming.dev)
 

How do you handle design when working a project that doesn’t have explicit design guidelines?

I’ve been working on some personal projects, but I am continually getting held up on design. I hate looking at a blank page, not knowing where to start. I’m not a particularly creative person in art and design and I really struggle to come up with new ideas on my own. I don’t enjoy it.

I’m the kind of person who buy 10 plain black t-shirts and 5 pairs of plain jeans so I never have to think about style.

I’m sure there are a lot of us out there; you can make the thing but, not design it. How do you work that part of the process?

I don’t want my projects to get skipped over because they’re ugly and I don’t want to copy other designs pixel for pixel.

I feel you. I am like this with so many things.

When I started going to the gym, the only way I could get myself to go was to watch a show on my phone while working out. The catch is, I told myself I was only allowed to watch the show while I was working out. If I want to know what happens next, I had to get on a treadmill.

I fell out of the habit last summer and getting back into it has been a huge struggle.

When starting out, Josh Comeau’s free tutorials were awesome. I felt like I understood Flexbox so well after reading his article. He does a great job explaining it all.
