Day 56: Visual Design

Today, I learned how to test perceptions of visual design. How to assess user reactions, visual-design aesthetics within usability testing, and being aware of biases.

I also learned about "left-side vertical navigation on desktop," The benefits, drawbacks, and guidelines. I understand what right-rail blindness is, as well as F-shaped reading patterns.

Finally, I learned about the use of breadcrumbs for mobile and web.
