    Design products for non-designers?

    Hi all, I have to write a book proposal for a book heavy on images, but I'm not a designer. Do you have recommendations? What do you use? (I'm a writer, not a tech person, so I need something that doesn't involve coding). Thanks!

    Canva is made to make everybody a designer! I've also used icons from https://thenounproject.com/ that are free and https://icons8.com/illustrations

    Our design team all started off by not being designers and learned Figma from scratch. We get lot's of compliments regarding the design of the app so I think it's safe to say that Figma is a great tool. You can start with simple stuff and eventually add layers of complexity to your designs once you get more confident. I play around with it from time to time and I get better every time I use it.

    Are you looking for products to help you create the images you mention, or the formatting and styling of the book itself?
