awesome-design

Awesome Design is a curated, community-maintained list of resources and tools aimed at UI and UX designers. The repository itself contains no software; it is a long README that organizes links to other websites, apps, and reading material so that designers can find useful things without having to search the open web every time.

The README opens with a short framing statement that the list focuses on high-quality resources for daily design work and invites contributions through issues and pull requests. The contents are split into two broad groups. The first, called Get things done, gathers practical working resources under categories like Stock photos, Icon and Logo, Color, Typography, Toolkit, Prototyping, Mockup, and User Testing. The second, called Concepts, points to learning material under categories such as Read and Digest, Styleguide and Branding, Tutorial, Book, Award, Conference and Festival, Podcast, and Community. Each entry inside a section is a name, a link, and usually a short quoted description, for example free stock photo sites, color palette generators, brand color references, and curated photography collections.

Someone would use this list as a starting point when they need a specific kind of design asset or inspiration source, when assembling a personal toolkit, or when browsing what is broadly available in the design ecosystem. The README explicitly suggests picking the entries that fit your own work and adding them to your kit rather than trying to use everything. Because it is community-curated and lives on GitHub, freshness depends on contributors, and some external links may age over time. The full README is longer than what was provided.
