@tvujtatata
As a frontend software developer, I really struggle with design. I am good in the back of the FE like logic, performance, and the whole architecture, and can work with CSS if I am given a design but coming up with it myself is difficult. Especially when it comes to colors. So we have primary, secondary, and accent colors. Then there are actions. They can also be primary and secondary. Now what colors to choose for those actions since accent color should be used for CTA. This is where I get lost haha.

To my fellow designers and Ran Segall, whenever I'm going to design a landing page. I always tend to follow the company's color branding of their logo, is it a good practice? and is there a time when you didn't follow the brand's color. Thank you for this video, I learned, and helped me a lot dealing in with one of my struggles.
@marianebrenner2639
ajudaria muito se tivesse legenda
@KenKopelson
By the way, the word "Accent" is pronounced ACK-SENT. "Ascent" is pronounced ASSENT, and it means to go up.

@T.FBULLY
What's the name of that font For the big white words?
@GinaMaher_
the idea of switching it up and trading white for black etc… really cleared up a lot for me! I've watched a few color videos now and i'm always like ok so sometimes the font counts as a color and other times it doesn't??! and that page is not 60% that color! and it was driving me insane ha.
@raybbaby
My brain glitches when he pronounces "accent" as "ascent". What did he just say???
@promiseigbosonu1455

@hishamelfangary722
Very helpful video.
But I don't see the purple in your choice of dominant color at all. It just seems like it's fully blue.
