Course Description

Design websites that look polished, feel intuitive, and guide people to take action. This free online Web Design course in UX and UI Design helps you build a strong foundation in modern, user-centered visual design so your pages communicate clearly and convert better. Whether you are starting from scratch or sharpening your design instincts, you will learn how to make deliberate choices that improve usability and aesthetics across real-world website scenarios.

You will explore what web designers actually do and the core tools and workflows used to move from idea to a clean, structured interface. Along the way, you will gain a practical understanding of why web design evolved the way it did and how that history influences today’s expectations for layout, navigation, and responsive thinking. Instead of guessing, you will learn to design with intention, using principles that support readability, clarity, and consistent user journeys.

Strong visuals start with strong systems. The course strengthens your eye for typography, spacing, hierarchy, and color so visitors can scan content effortlessly and find what they need. You will also learn how to choose and prepare imagery effectively, including foundational photo editing habits that keep assets crisp and on-brand. These skills come together when you start planning page structure, shaping the hero section to answer the key questions users have, and organizing content so it feels natural and easy to navigate.

To connect strategy with execution, you will practice turning ideas into wireframes and translating them into a concrete homepage design using Adobe XD and a grid-based approach. You will also learn how to get designs ready for development and how design decisions change across different site types, from portfolios to e-commerce. Finally, you will improve your creative range by learning where to find inspiration responsibly, applying psychology-based principles to interface decisions, and understanding the landscape of website-building tools—so you can choose the right path from no-code to more advanced solutions.
