2020 has passed. It has been an unstable year and many have fizzled out. Social distance, lockdown, teleworking, and for many, downsizing: all of this has become a new reality.
But despite the volatility, the global UI / UX and product design scene hasn't stood still. After all, new solutions have appeared with new problems. Companies released new products as well as updated existing ones.
