    Wasn't covid the BEST time to launch an online design course?

    Great talk MDS! Did you use some Teehan+Lax UI Kits for those early side projects? Would be pretty meta, if so.

    Matt’s a legend. Great session, Matt! Thanks for all you’ve contributed to the industry. I am a proud AIUX student that used the course to help me bridge from graphic design to UX design almost a decade ago.

    Side projects are what make you shine like a star. They show that you are not driven by money all the time, but by a passion for creativity.

    Placeholder text in input elements is pretty much a no go according to most accessibility experts. I tend to agree with them, it doesn't test too well either.

      This is SO not a point 😉

      It's not a placeholder text? It's the label moving up. Yes, there are other issues with that. But not as bad as placeholder text that disapears.
