  1. Designing for Touch

    February 10, 2020

    This is an sample chapter from Josh Clark’s book Designing for Touch. 2015, A Book Apart.

    Chapter 4: Gestures

    Cover: Designing for TouchHands are wonderfully expressive. We talk with our hands all the time: they ask questions, show intent, command attention, reveal emotion.

    To understand better the ways you can represent text on a Web page, it’s best to take a trip into the long history of text. Read More

    Cover of Designing UX: PrototypingWhen we say HTML prototypes, we mean a Web site comprising HTML markup, CSS for presentation, and JavaScript for additional interactivity. It may be a simple HTML Web site, or a Web site that runs on a framework or content management system (CMS).
