Course Description
In this course, you will learn how to create dynamic layouts in Adobe XD with the assistance of grids, guides, alignment, distribution, and repetition. When working on your designs, you can use guides to line up objects or manage spacing between elements on an artboard. Grids serve as a framework on which you can organize your design elements and ensure the symmetry of the layout.
Defining a grid system can help you ensure your design stays in alignment and can save valuable time measuring pixels and spacing between elements. You will learn about the two grid options in Adobe XD that provide guidance when setting up your design: layout and square.
