What tools should UX designers know?

Figma is the industry standard for UI design. Familiarity with prototyping tools, user testing platforms (Maze, UserTesting), and basic front-end knowledge (HTML/CSS) are valuable. Design systems experience is a plus.

Do UX designers need to code?

Not required, but understanding HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript helps communicate with developers and creates more feasible designs. Some roles (UX Engineer) explicitly require coding skills.
