01Overview
CodeQuest is a gamified education website that makes learning programming languages fun — with courses, tournaments and a blog. I led the project from branding and user flows to the design system, final UI and the admin side.
The challenge › Make learning to code feel like play, not a classroom — while staying easy to navigate.
02Breaking it down
Before designing anything, the problem was split into its parts:
- I
Brand — a bright, playful identity and characters
- II
Learning — courses and progress
- III
Play — tournaments and challenges
- IV
Admin — managing courses, users and content
03Start to end
I · Brand
Created the brand direction: bold colour, gaming energy and friendly characters.
II · User flows
Mapped flows for learners and for the admin side.
III · Design system & UI
Built the design system and designed the website screens.
IV · Prototype & QA
Prototyped and checked the build against the designs.
