• Basic Tools Overview:
  • Saurav introduces various tools in Figma such as the move tool, scale tool, slice tool, pen tool, and hand tool, explaining their functionalities for creating and manipulating design elements.
• frames in Figma:
  • frames serve as digital containers for organizing content. They can be nested, allowing for complex designs to be structured easily.
  • A top-level frame represents the screen size (e.g., 1440 pixels for desktop) and influences the behavior of nested elements.
  • The use of frames simplifies content arrangement, maintenance, and allows for variations in design.

  • To create a frame, users can press Control + Alt + G. Each frame can be named for better organization (e.g., mobile screen, home screen).
• Assignment:
  • Saurav assigns viewers to design a landing page for Zomato using frames, encouraging them to experiment with shapes and corner radii to create circular elements.
• Engagement:
  • Viewers are encouraged to comment with any challenges they face during the assignment, and Saurav offers mentorship for well-executed designs.
