Most designers know the rules. Few can look at a screen and instantly see what's wrong. Uxy trains that skill — your design eye. Through visual UI/UX quizzes and short lessons, you learn to recognise weak UI, understand why it does not work, and build real design intuition. That eye is what gets tested. In a portfolio review or a design interview, nobody asks you to recite the rules — you get a screen and one question: what would you change? No long video courses. Just 5 minutes of focused UI/UX practice a day. The first two lessons of every course are free. 10 UI/UX DESIGN COURSES Each course pairs a short visual lesson with practical quizzes, so you apply the rule right after you learn it. Foundations — Typography · Spacing & Layout · Color & Contrast · Visual Hierarchy · Depth & Shadows Components — Forms & Input · Buttons · Lists · Navigation · States HOW IT WORKS — Read a short visual lesson — Compare real interface examples and judge them — Answer quizzes to check how fast you notice problems — Read why the wrong answer is wrong — Track your progress across all 10 courses MORE WAYS TO PRACTICE In addition to the courses, Uxy adds three practice modes: — Saved: bookmark any question to come back to it — Mistakes: retake every question you answered wrong — Random: a mixed UI/UX quiz across all topics YOUR UI/UX CERTIFICATE Finish all 10 courses and Uxy issues your certificate of completion, ready to share on LinkedIn or add to your portfolio. It is a record of the practice you actually did, not a test you crammed for. WHO IT IS FOR — Junior UI/UX and product designers building core skills — Mobile and app designers who want a sharper eye for visual detail — Developers who want to understand UI design principles — Students and bootcamp graduates preparing for design interviews and portfolio reviews — Anyone moving into UX design who wants daily, structured practice UXY PREMIUM The first two lessons of every course are free, so you can try the format before you pay.

About

NodeBook

Features
Read full description

NodeBook is a practical guide to Node.js for developers who want to understand the runtime, not just memorise APIs. Read published chapters in a focused native reader. Follow a structured path through the event loop, streams, buffers, networking, modules, processes, security, production systems, architecture, and the parts of Node.js that usually stay hidden behind frameworks. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Read every published free chapter without signing in • Keep your place and return to the next lesson • Bookmark useful chapters and save lessons for offline reading • Adjust text size, width, spacing, and reading theme • Follow the curriculum in a clear learning path • Explore Node Runtime Labs and their project maps • Practise production reasoning with Raw Mode previews • Sync eligible progress when signed in • Bring existing NodeBook access into the app with the same email • Contact NodeBook through a private support conversation • Get an optional notification when support replies BUILT FOR SERIOUS NODE.JS WORK NodeBook starts below the surface. The lessons connect JavaScript code to the runtime, operating system, protocols, memory, queues, files, processes, and production tradeoffs around it. It is useful whether you are learning backend development, preparing for a Node.js interview, or trying to make better architecture decisions at work. Published chapters and selected practice material are free. Some Runtime Labs and Raw Mode lessons require existing NodeBook access. Sign-in uses a one-time email code, so there is no password to remember. No ads. No noisy streak pressure. Just a careful place to learn how Node.js really works.
