Nevan Scott

Hi there! I run Button School from my home base in Barcelona. My time is split between teaching, developing new courses, and growing the Button School community.

I’ve been teaching for a while now (15 years?), and I absolutely love working with students. My background is in both design and development, primarily for web stuff and design systems.

These days, you can find me teaching coding for designers and interface and interaction design. If either of these interest you, I’d love to have you in class!

I occasionally write at notated.org.

* Yes, this list is meant to be impressive. I’ve taught 1000+ students, and the majority of them work at mighty fine places that you just might not have heard of. Name recognition isn’t everything!

What are they saying?

I got to learn so much about the topic: see how others created theirs, get inspiration; and the course helped me complete the design system that is now used by my entire team. Incredibly useful and also great fun to connect with other professionals in the field from all over the world.

For anyone thinking on attending a class with Nevan I cannot recommend him enough as a teacher, and a lot of us working in the industry can attest to the value of his teaching.

I loved this course and I want to take more of Nevan’s classes. It was great to get more in depth knowledge about building design systems, building flexible components and being more organized in Figma. Nevan is patient and really listens to your questions and answers them thoughtfully.
