What did you learn about design at CYF? Didn't learn anything about UXUI, just front end
What did you learn about design in your job. Ali learned about storybooks at his job. It helps him work better. Designers design in Figma, import in the storybook then show them to designers. This can be made into components.
Didn't make a portfolio. Just shared Github and the final project.

Hi @alecmccrindle, Is Shayan an Alumini? from each cohort, please?
Shayan
Design info wasn't really needed for Shayan He built his portfolio in this first month at CYF There is a design team at his job Weekly meeting with the designers Designers show designs for new features - ask devs if it's feasible All design work is coming through designers - they share the components There is a good storybook and documentation - full of patterns and components! Devs are speak daily to designers during standup. If there are any issues, designers can change the design with the devs. Working together. Designers ask him for design ideas!
Thoughts: CSS is important for understanding system design - brain should think like a designer. Good to practice on design system / components. Make sure the work is clear and tidy. Introduce the idea of a design system. If they want to design by themselves, they can practice on a design system.
Ideas for CYF cirriculum - introduce the idea of what a design system is. Maybe practice something with it.
