Pixels of the Week – October 14 , 2016
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: Women in the Tech industry, a talk on creativity and a video presenting Illustrator Shaper Tool, the state of mobile frameworks, SVG viewport mess, some technics and advice to style hyperlinks and to design or short attention span.
