This content is 7 years old. Remember that the following content might be outdated.

Every week I post a lot of my daily readings about Web, UI and UX Design, mobile design, webdesign tools and useful resources, inspiration on twitter and other social networks.

This week’s selection: cognitive bias, the fear of whitespace, a few articles on PWA, mobile marketing for millennials, styleguides, pattern libraries, animations and UX, form validation, Sketch, CSS grid layout, a few tools and a nice satyre of recruitment process at the end.

You can follow me on twitter to get a dose of links every days.
