Designing and Prototyping a Website with Adobe XD
Learn how to design website layouts in Adobe XD, create repeatable interface elements, build responsive concepts, and turn static screens into interactive prototypes ready for review and handoff.
Course overview
This course walks through the full process of designing and prototyping a website inside Adobe XD, from layout creation to interactive presentation and asset export.
Created by Paul Trani, this Lynda course is built for learners who want to use Adobe XD to design websites more efficiently. It starts with the workspace and core design tools, then moves into creating graphics, page layouts, headers, and body text while building full website screens.
The course also covers repeat grids, responsive design thinking, mobile-friendly layouts, interactive prototyping, prototype sharing, recording user flows, and exporting assets for developers. It is a practical design-to-handoff workflow for anyone working in UI, UX, responsive design, or web layout planning.
