I learned a lot about components, variables, and animated overlays. It was fun to add more advanced functionality to my prototype
What was easy?
It was easy to set up the basic functionality of the prototype, as we had already gone over how to do so in previous projects. Because of this, I was able to add more advanced features.
What was challenging?
I had a bit of trouble trying to figure out some Figma peculiarities with animated overlays. I discovered that you could only have one on screen at a time.
How could your submission be improved?
I only added directions for 5 locations. I could improve my project by adding in the rest.
How could the professor improve the assignment for the next class?
I think this was a very good assignment. It allowed us to be creative with what app prototype we designed.
How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?
I will definitely continue to use Figma to plan out prototypes. My project workflow will now always start with Figma.
How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?
The graveyard walkthrough was very helpful for inspiration. I was able to come up with the AR walking directions based on that.
