My Learnings

This was my first app where I was involved end-to-end—from defining the business model and understanding user intent to taking it all the way through until the final design was delivered. It gave me complete ownership of the product journey and helped me understand how each stage connects to create a meaningful user experience.

  • Creating banners with AI taught me how to write effective prompts.

  • I realized that giving too much information to AI can reduce accurac

  • Clear and specific prompts give better results.

  • Iteration is key when working with AI.

  • Balancing AI outputs with manual design improves quality.

  • I understood the importance of reducing visual load.

  • Exploring multiple tools helps in choosing the best solution.
