Uxcel is my favorite way to learn and refresh design principles. Lessons are presented in short-form cards with a casual exam format, encouraging critical thinking before revealing context and evidence. The format makes it easy to learn in just 5 minutes a day, maintain a streak, and track progress. Plus, there’s a great community on Discord for support!
