Rauno is undoubtedly one of the best in the world at what he does. Strongly recommend his course.
A year in the making, my interaction design manual is available today. With 20 chapters and 20 downloadable React components on an interactive custom platform, it includes everything I know about not just interactions, but design. Registration is open for 2 weeks.

Change doesn’t have to stand out. Sometimes it’s just about the way everything feels when motion becomes quieter, smoother, more aligned!
