Going from a blank screen to a finished website can be daunting. In this course, you'll learn about the major steps involved in designing websites. We'll learn how to gather information, explore potential concepts, and iterate on a design. By the end, you'll have the foundation you need to continue your design journey.
The early phases of design have many names, but sometimes people call this first chunk the "Discovery" phase because we're trying to find as much information as we can before we start designing something that doesn't actually fit the right needs.

Working on your own web project? Try interviewing other people in your organization, or people that may potentially visit your website. Ask them questions about their needs and create a summary of your findings. It might seem a bit strange the first time you do it, but you'll be glad later on when you have notes to help guide your design decisions.
After you've finished gathering information and communicating with stakeholders, you're ready to start exploring potential concepts.
