The course has been a real game-changer! I came out of it with a new skill set and confidence in my ability to build websites. I loved how the course was super approachable and gamified. It kept me engaged and interested in continuing on my web design journey. The course is such a good entry point into web design! All of the lessons are fun and Puno makes everything so easy to understand.

This course really stretched me. When I signed up, I thought "hey! this is going to be a breeze " - I even took a week off of work to go through it. But quickly I found out this was going to be a steep learning curve for me! I was surprised very quickly on how much there was to learn and pick up through the resource centre and the TAs. I learnt how to bring wireframes to life, which was so fun!

Besides everything about the course looking sick 🔥🔥🔥 and Puno's charm, wisdom and charisma, I also loved that the course add a whole module on Freelancing. Plus this is such a cool, inspiring and supporting community to be part of 💘

Honestly, this course was exactly what I needed to jumpstart my freelance web design business. It gave me an incredible foundation, and I’m so excited to see where things go from here! I used to worry that the web design market was too saturated and that no one would want to work with me. But after diving in fully, I realized the opposite is true. If you invest the time and focus (it takes a lot!) into this course, it will pay off, and there will be people eager to work with you. Don’t be afraid to put your design work out there and keep practicing your skills—what you might see as 'meh' could be a huge 'wow' to someone else. And most importantly, remember to be kind to yourself!

I loved the connection to web designers all around the world, the supportive community in Discord! People were always helping each other out with code snippets and giving each other feedback. I found Puno and the course teachers's feedback so valuable as well, I felt that I grew so much as a designer through their ample help.

I've taken many design-related courses, and this one stands out as the best by far. It's an incredibly useful skill to have, and even if you don't become a Squarespace web designer, you'll gain valuable insights into navigating challenges without frustration and learning how to activate your creative vision and turn it into something real. These skills are applicable not only in various creative careers but also in life in general. I'm genuinely so glad that I took this course and highly recommend it to anyone who's interested.

This course was genuinely healing work. Going to be so real, there were moments where I wanted to give up, give in, and toss off my little fantasy web design top hat. However, I did not. I learned first that I was not alone; I had a whole community of people on the Discord channel who had either figured it out or were willing to help. There were also times when I wanted to challenge myself and see if I could figure it out on my own. Spoiler alert: I did! Let me tell you, those breakthrough moments boosted my self-confidence.

During the course, I gained extensive knowledge about Squarespace, web design, freelancing, and, unexpectedly, myself. I realized I had been imposing unnecessary constraints on my growth as a designer and as a person. Working in a job with rigid expectations and processes had inadvertently led me to box myself in. This course helped me break free from those limitations and explore new possibilities. It also inspired me to take the graphic design course to explore more and lean into this creative side of myself.
