"I really enjoyed this course, I learned a lot, the lectures are very informative and enjoyable, Mr. Dawid is a gifted teacher, he can present the topics in a very engaging manner.
But there is one thing that the potential buyers should know about this course, you learn many great concepts about using illustrator for web design and designing a template for future projects with placeholders for web content but to practice designing a real website and using those concepts you learn in this course, it is advisable to take another course by Mr.Dawid named "How To Design a Website in Illustrator", I highly recommend those two courses together for any one who wants to learn about web design in illustrator."

This course is for all those who want to start designing websites in Adobe Illustrator.
Otherwise, this course isn't for you.
I know, that it is not that common to use Illustrator for web design. Well that’s mainly because developers are simply used to receiving designs made in Photoshop. And that’s ok! Illustrator lets you export files to Photoshop with ease!
So you get the best of both worlds: design in Illustrator, deliver in Photoshop.
And this goes to all you logo designers and all you dtp designers: you don’t have to ditch Illustrator to design web sites! You can do that successfully in your favorite design tool!
I vouch for this course. I wish I came across this kind of knowledge, when I was starting out as a designer.
But if, within the 30-day guarantee period, you are not convinced, that this course is going to kick-start your web design projects in Adobe Illustrator…
… simply ask Udemy for a refund, but I really doubt that you will have a reason for it.
You risk nothing.
It’s up to you now.

Learned a lot! Excellent insights, but I kept having to Google to verify the information was current since this course is old. The AI CC is also different than the current version. Wish it was a current course! The wireframe section of the course is probably useless, better accomplished in Adobe XD CC which is now out and is specifically made for wireframing. So the overall concepts and tips are really great and useful in the real world, but because the course is not updated and because wireframing is done easier in XD, I would not recommend this course. I put the course on speed listening and didn't do many of the exercises after I figured out that the wireframing section is useless to me, but still learned a lot of tips. He has really great links to other websites that are very useful in colors, fonts, etc.

This is an Excellent well structured course for learning how to use Illustrator to design websites. It's not a course about design, its focus is on creating objects for wire framing, and organizing the objects in Illustrator. Dawid shows you how to setup Illustrator, work with its many panels, use the organization features of illustrator, and the best way to save time editing objects. Then he shows you how to create templates, libraries, and build a complete grid system based on bootstrap (which can be applied to any grid system). This is a really good course if you want to build designs in illustrator that easily translate into HTLM/CSS. The course is in CS6 but everything applies to the new CC without a problem. If you take this course you will learn a good workflow and techniques that you help you tremendously in building a faster more refined wire frame and mockup.
