## Reviews

### "Principle review 2022" — 5.0/5

> **jason** | *13 July 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: After a few years of working with Python, I tried a few apps that claimed to be the best for classic UI designs, but, Principle has been proven to be worthy of it.

For me, Principle is the perfect designer's choice so far. It works flawlessly for animations and transitions with an easy-to-use graphic interface and is ultimately my \#1 recommended tool for all UI aspirants.

Trust me, it's super easy to work with and can be very productive if you are creative.
> 
> **Cons**: I totally dislike the overall quality of built-in fonts. They are not easy to use and are not attractive.
> 
> It's the best prototyping tool for creating awesome animations that would possibly increase UX \& interaction. Give it a try
