Hi, I’m Gene. If bootcamps and scattered tutorials haven’t worked for you, you’re not alone. They promise a lot but often leave you with theory you can’t use and skills that feel outdated before you even start applying them.
I taught myself design by doing. Over 15 years, I freelanced, joined startups, worked in enterprise, made mistakes, and learned what actually matters. That journey led me to co-found Uxcel — an all-in-one platform for designers, product managers, and other product professionals to build their skills effectively, even with busy lives.
Over the past 6 years I’ve watched how over 500K professionals grew their skills and career with Uxcel. Self-paced learning, bite-sized lessons, and a gamified experience help you learn faster. No rigid schedules. Five minutes a day is enough to make real progress. You build a habit of continuous learning — something that’s no longer optional with AI changing how product teams work.
Our courses cover design, product management, and AI. Whether you’re starting out, switching careers, or already working in product, the goal is the same: step beyond your core role, build cross-functional skills, and collaborate more effectively with your team. AI gives you leverage, but you still need strong foundations to use it well.
What you learn here shows up in real work. Let’s start growing your skills.

Designers need to know about common design patterns because they are widely used solutions to frequently occurring problems in a given context. Understanding and using patterns like sign-up and login, shopping carts and checkout, search and filtering, and onboarding can help designers create effective and efficient user experiences, saving time and resources, and providing users with familiar and intuitive interfaces.
Furthermore, understanding design patterns can also help designers communicate more effectively with other team members, such as developers, who may have a more technical understanding of the project requirements. It can also help designers develop a common language with their colleagues and stakeholders, improving collaboration and the overall quality of the design work.
The knowledge of design patterns can be beneficial for a wide range of design roles, including UX designers, interaction designers, visual designers, product designers, and front-end developers.
For example, UX designers need to know how to create interfaces that are easy to navigate and meet the needs of users. Design patterns can assist them in identifying and resolving common problems, such as designing an efficient sign-up process or organizing content to help users find what they need quickly.
Design patterns can also aid visual designers in creating aesthetically pleasing designs that are both beautiful and functional. By providing a common vocabulary and shared understanding of how different design elements work together, design patterns can help front-end developers write better code.
