Hi friends, this a free annual resource. Looking forward to data points from thousands of designers and product folks as the remote work revolution continues.

Great notes on usability testing. Also one my favorite research methods (second to just open interviews, I love broad open discussions).
We're always open to new resources if you have any to recommend (but we read through a lot and picked a few we thought were most useful). We'll take a look at some of the issues you mentioned.

This seems like an important question but I admit I'm not sure what you mean—are you asking how to measure a designer's performance?

> Also, I am really curious what the other countries were in your survey. Because that was the largest group of people. Is it mostly from asia or something?
Good question—it's low numbers spread across like 100+ countries that we grouped into an "Other" category (but maybe that's not clear). You can see those countries in the raw data here: https://gumroad.com/l/2020-design-tools-survey

One of the makers here. Front page with no comments? Come say hi :)
I wish this had existed long before now to help the designers I’ve mentored who are trying to grow their portfolio. While case studies are the primary format for UX portfolios, there’s nothing stopping someone from showcasing other skills with engaging exercises like these.
Maybe you’re at a job where you’re can’t frequently be in touch with customers. Maybe you’re stuck in a role but trying to make the switch the UX. Maybe you’re studying UX but would like to gain a competitive edge. Maybe you’re a team lead trying to help your team learn new skills. UX Challenges are an invaluable tool in any of these situations.
Jordan and I put a ton of time into this—hope you find it valuable!
