Squarespace offers two powerful editing tools for creating websites and online stores: Fluid Engine and Classic Editor. 🎨🚀 🔹 Fluid Engine (Version 7.1): -Flexible 24-column grid for element overlap and full-bleed effects -Perfect for modern designs and custom layouts, including exclusive blocks 🔹 Classic Editor (Version 7.0): -Operates on a traditional 12-column grid with fixed element spacing -Includes built-in image layouts and integrated mobile site design. We recommend utilizing both editors when appropriate. The Fluid Engine can help with more intricate designs and mobile work, while the Classic Editor is useful for existing CSS customization and image layouts. We switched between editors while crafting the new site for AS Travel Pro, LLC and the results were fantastic. Let us know if we can help with yours!

"The internet has massively broadened the possible space of careers. Most people haven't figured that out yet." --AngelList CEO Naval Ravikant Ravikant has invested in over 200 early-stage companies including Uber, X, and Poshmark. He's probably worth listening to. Careers we rely on at Hyperspace Ventures such as developer, product manager, UX/UI designer, and digital marketer, didn't exist or were vastly different just a few decades ago. What does the next generation of careers look like? The rise of AI will bring on the need for individuals who specialize in training models, AI design, and ethics concerns. We're excited to work with startups such as Social Cascade and hiddenMind.ai who are immersed in the space. Augmented reality (AR) is also opening up doors for experts in immersive experience, design, and integration. The future of work is now. Let's make a dent in the universe 🚀 #angellist #navalravikant #internet #newcareers #uxui #uxuidesigner #ai #aijobs #aistartup #ar #arjobs #augmentedreality #hyperspaceventures

Card sorting and tree testing are two key methods of #UX research that help designers understand how users interact with and navigate through a product. Card sorting is an engaging, game-like process that invites users to organize information such as pages, images, and descriptions into logical groups, helping designers understand preferences in content grouping and layout. Tree testing evaluates site structure by asking users to locate items based on the site's navigation and terminology. It simulates real navigation scenarios by presenting users with a visual sitemap and tasks to find specific content. When used together, card sorting and tree testing provide comprehensive insights into content organization and navigation preferences. Incorporating both into the design process leads to informed #UXUI decisions.
