Step by step, you’ll design the main sections of a personal portfolio website, including a navigation bar, hero section, About Me section, selected projects, contact information and footer. You’ll also create professional project cards that can be personalised with your own images, descriptions and case studies.

In addition, you’ll learn how to use Auto Layout to create flexible layouts and how to turn buttons, tags and project cards into reusable components. Finally, you’ll add simple prototype interactions to connect the navigation, buttons and sections of your portfolio.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a complete portfolio website design that you can customise to represent your personality, skills and professional goals. You’ll also understand the essential Figma tools needed to begin creating your own websites, interfaces and digital design projects.
