Hi there, it's Victor again.

Short announcement.

I've just bought a domain (big deal, huh?) and from the 1st of March I'll be working on something completely new. More details below.

But first. To finish this winter and "close the gestalt" for my previous books, I made a bundle with everything I made for the past two years.

Discounted for my subscribers of course. The "BUNDLE50" coupon will give you 50% off.

By the way, Paddle (my payment processor) made it hard (hello usability!) to find how you can apply the coupon code. So... here it is.

​

Okay, now what's the new project I was talking about will look like?

Future plans

The thing is, I gathered quite a lot of materials about UI/UX. Tips, reviews, occasional articles, and hundreds of links and courses.

Now, I feel like I could make yet another tips book, to update my previous one. But I wanted to make something bigger.

Previously I talked to people about the idea of making an interactive course dedicated to building "Digital products". The idea was to redesign a bank application from scratch, and during this process I would apply both good UI/UX practices, along with proper information architecture while keeping most of the features that the bank has.

I don't give up on that idea. However, it's quite a big one. It should be an interactive platform, where you login and go through all the steps, lessons, whatever you call them.

I though about "Well, I still want to gather all materials I have into one place!". Books are good, but what might be much more convenient is an online place, where you can:

• Search materials
• See code snippets or UI behavior IN ACTION
• Easily use it on mobile devices
• Get into a community where you can ask for advice, review
• Get constant updates

On the other hand I don't like lengthy courses. Instead, short bits of information are great to digest.

But.

Sometimes you need to dig more. For example, how could I show how validation should work in a static images? I can, but it won't look the same as dynamic ones.

For example, check out https://user-interface.io/articles/modals-and-user-experience this. It was the first attempt to make interactivity, and here we can see in action, what is "modal" and "non-modal" dialogs.

So many things to show.

So I decided to make an online knowledge base, or whatever you call it, that will have all the information, with occasional code snippets, with occasional (when it's reasonable) interactivity.

Approximate deadline: the end of spring. Yes, I know, we never meet deadlines, but I need to announce it to keep on working on this.

Those who buy https://reform.user-interface.io/bundle will either be beta-testers, get a significant discount, or get into discord community (which is in plans as well). I'm not sure yet, honestly.

But I'll be working hard to make it perfect, since PDFs are limited.

Anyway, let's see how it goes.
