Hello!
It's been a heck of a long journey to get this to you, so I want to start out by thanking you for your patience and understanding. I'm really proud to announce that Chapter 2 of the Atomic Design Certification course is now live and ready to watch on Thinkific!
Chapter 2 covers the Atomic Design methodology, which is a big deal as it’s the name of the course! This chapter covers:
◉ How interchangeable parts changed the world, from cars to computers to UI
◉ A brief history of UI components and how they’ve become a best practice
◉ The Atomic Design methodology: atoms, molecules, organisms, templates, and pages
◉ How Atomic Design connects design systems to the products they serve
◉ Common misconceptions around Atomic Design, especially around naming, categorization, and how you actually use it.
Next Steps
◉ If you haven’t already, check out Chapter 1 to get a design systems primer that’s helpful for anyone who needs to care about them!
◉ Head over to the course FigJam to introduce yourself and ask your burning design systems questions.
◉ Join our friendly Slack community! In addition to talking shop, we have channels like #music (for all things music), #hell-yeah (where we celebrate each others’ accomplishments), #useful-links, #book-it, and a whole lot more
◉ Check out our brand-new AI and Design Systems course! We’re lining up a whole slew of useful videos, demos, resources, and community to help people navigate this AI-powered next chapter of digital design and development. Join the party; it’s a ton of fun!
Once again, I want to thank you all for your patience and understanding. I’m humming along now, so Chapter 3 will be released right around the corner!
Love always,
