Let’s get straight into. I wrote a tutorial on an article Neumorphism.
And I decided to spectate Neumorphism on the internet. Dribbble, Instagram and Reddit are having many discussions about Neumorphism is a replacement of Flat design trends. Let me clear it.

There are many UX and UI reasons for it.

  • Accessibility
  • Adaptive
  • Perfect for great UX
  • Minimalist
  • Flexible
  • Performace

Neumorphism is NOT a replacement of Flat design trend.

But it’s an addition in UI design.

So what is Neumorphism for?

Neumorphism is just another UI design trend like Gradient.
When the gradient trend started. The Internet was reacting the same as they are reacting to the Neumorphic trend.

But Now the Gradient trend perfectly fits in UI design along with a great UX.

Till now I found out that Neumorphism is good for small apps like Music Player or Calculator. We reached this conclusion because we did Experiments.

And as a designer/developer it should be our end goal to server use the best.

Some designers/developers should be agreed with me.

I am not saying this is the best and only design future out there but can be an option in the near future.

It’s Just a beginning.

Neumorphism is just in beginning faze.
Let it give time to grow more and let's Keep an EYE on it.

Or

If it does not grow much we will learn something new with it.

Keep Experimenting

Don’t be a part of a crowd. Go fire up your design tool and start experimenting with it. Because why not. Look at the shots on Dribbble and Instagram.

You can continue if you want to learn something new…..

This section is divided into 2 sections for designers and for developers.

For Developers

I found a tool on Reddit to create some cool effects for Neumorphism

Below is the link to a website that will help.

and React GitHub repository.
React Native components based on the concept of Neumorphism (iOS only).

For Designers

There is already a bunch of content out there for designers.

Alexunder Hess published a lot of great content on youtube with videos.

Alexunder Hess has created separate Videos for each tool For Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma as well as Adobe XD.
