Matt D. Smith (@mds), explains what Shift Nudge is:
Shift Nudge is the systematic process to learn the visual skills of interface design, even if you don’t have a design background. Perfect for those wanting to enter or advance in the field.
Let’s say you’re sitting there reading this and you’re a coder that wishes they had more experience with and confidence in interface design. You have ideas. You can build them quickly. But you think they don’t look as good as they could or work as well as they need to. A program like Shift Nudge can help build your vocabulary, skillset, and train your eye for good, usable interface design. And Matt is the perfect person to teach you that.
I met Matt in 2013 in Greenville, South Carolina at the Greenville Grok. I was impressed with him then. He’s be upping his game ever since.
