Learning UI Builder: Xanadu Edition!

Good news everyone!

We have some awesome updates for you when it comes to getting started with UI Builder. We have released the Xanadu update for the Now Learning UI Builder Fundamentals course, and it's now free for anyone to take! Keep reading for more information on how to get your UI Builder journey started.

If you've been wanting to learn about UI Builder, now's your best chance. Here's what you should do:

• First, check out the UI Builder 101 article (https://sn.works/UIBuilder101) or the UI Builder 101 video by Chris Johnson to get a great amount of foundational knowledge.
• Next, check out the UI Builder Fundamentals course on Now Learning (https://sn.works/UIBFunX). There will be a fantastic amount of hands on examples and learning for you to get the basics down.
• Once you've gone through the training, check out our team's Knowledge 2024 labs over on the Next Experience Workshops site (https://sn.works/NEWorkshops). We have an Intro to workspaces lab and an Advanced workspaces lab that will walk you through some of the more common use cases you might face when working in workspaces.
  
  • Crafting Workspaces Like a Pro: A Hands-On Learning Adventure! Lab (https://sn.works/K24IntroUIBLab)
    
  • Advanced workspace configuration with UI Builder Lab (https://sn.works/K24AdvUIBLab)
• Then, on the same Next Experience Workshops site, we also have a Build a Killer Single Page Application lab (https://sn.works/K24UIBKillerSPALab) that you can go through to learn custom application development in UI Builder with some more advanced concepts.
• And finally, to really test out your skills with a bigger challenge, check out the Build Along Month initiative (https://sn.works/BuildAlongMonth) on that same site. It's meant to be a set of stories that you can work through as if they were stories given to you at work.

All of that should get you started on your UI Builder journey! Here is also a handy list of links for further reference materials in case you need it:
