Figma is the go-to tool UI/UX designers use to craft and refine stunning UI/UX designs for digital products like websites and mobile apps. Designers use Figma to turn ideas into web pages, wireframes, or prototypes that can be worked on by multiple designers and tested with an audience.

Figma has become increasingly popular because of its features such as real-time collaboration, cross-platform accessibility, and support for third-party integrations. In BYOL's Figma UI/UX Design Essentials course, you will learn everything you need to start working as a UX designer in Figma.

Once you've mastered the fundamental principles, take your skills to the next level with the Figma Advanced Tutorial. Through class projects and challenges, you'll build the skills to make the most out of this powerful software all while receiving support and feedback from the BYOL team.

Frequently asked questions

We've answered some common questions below but we're always here to help!

Figma comes with a library of fonts you can use but if you’d like to use a different font, you can download a font and install it on your computer. To use this new font, you will select or create a text layer in a Figma design file, open the font selector in the right sidebar, and then open the filter dropdown and choose ‘Installed by you’ to find the fonts that you have added to Figma.
You can curve text upward, downward or into a circle using a plugin. Figma plugins are third-party tools that enhance the functionality of Figma. Plugins are used to customize elements, speed up work flows and automate tasks. 
Figma is a cloud-based design tool that is used to create and test web pages, wireframes, and mock ups of prototypes. From there, designers can use Figma’s real-time collaboration capabilities to develop and test the design with an audience.
All memberships unlock unlimited access to 30+ beginner and advanced courses. Study at your own pace and take as many courses as you like! You’ll also have access to personalised support, student community and regular design challenges.
We have some free lessons in each course for you to watch and get a feel for the course content and teaching style! Just look out for the ‘FREE’ label next to the lesson titles in the contents list for each course.
Our courses are only available by becoming a member and aren’t available individually.
We recommend taking the Essentials courses before moving onto Advanced (E.g. taking Illustrator Essentials before taking Illustrator Advanced) especially if you’re new to the app or software. If you’re self taught or have used the software for a long time we still recommend watching the Essentials course as many of our students are surprised at how many new things they learn here!
Membership at Bring Your Own Laptop comes with priority support for your learning journey. Send your questions to us using the ‘Ask the experts’ tile on your student dashboard or use the ‘contact us’ link at the bottom of all our pages.
