Version: GeneXus 18

GeneXus Frontend Development course

Design, Design System, and Design Tool

We will explore the key elements of design that will allow us to create the visual appearance of our screens. We will see how to create a design system that streamlines the subsequent implementation, taking into account the user experience. These elements will be addressed through the selected design tool, which will provide several ways to express the design decisions taken.


Presentation

This course consists of a series of videos in which a designer and a GeneXus developer, while developing a customer-facing application for a travel agency, guide you step by step through the most important aspects of customized manual frontend development with GeneXus. 


Objective  
Learn the fundamental concepts to: 

  • Methodically and orderly ensure that an application developed from scratch with GeneXus has the visual and interaction design defined by a designer in their tool. 
  • Understand a frontend implemented in GeneXus (whether manually or using automated tools) in order to edit it efficiently.
