About this course
This beginner course teaches the visual craft of web design: how layout grids, modular type scales, accessible color, spacing rhythm, and imagery work together to guide the eye. You will study real frameworks and tools designers use daily, then apply them to a full landing-page build. Every lesson pairs a principle with a concrete, numbers-backed technique you can use immediately.
