UI/UX

 UI Design: focuses on the look and feel of a digital product and how the interface looks, including buttons, typography, colors, spacing, icons, ect. It's essentially the visual design and interactive elements users interact with.

UX Design: is about the overall experience a user has when interacting with a product or site. It involves user research, usability, information architecture, and how intuitive or satisfying the experience is. UX is about solving problems and making sure the user's journey is smooth and effective.

Underlined is basic summary :)


List of 10:

Design for Mobile First (or at least keep it well in mind)
  • Ensure your website is responsive and works well on all screen sizes- mobile traffic often exceeds desktop.
Keep Navigation Simple and Intuitive
  • Use clear menus and logical structure so users can easily find what they need in just a few clicks.
Use Clear Calls-to-Action
  • Buttons and links should be easy to see and tell users exactly what will happen when clicked ( (“Get a Quote,” “Sign Up”).
Optimize Page Load Speed
  • A fast site improves user satisfaction and lowers bounce rates. Compress images and eliminate unnecessary scripts.
Prioritize Accessibility
  • Make sure your content can be accessed by all users, including those using screen readers or other assistive technologies. Remember ALT commands on images!
Maintain Visual Consistency
  • Use consistent colors, fonts, and design elements to build trust and brand recognition.
Use Whitespace Effectively
  • Don’t overcrowd the page- good spacing improves readability and highlights important elements.
Make Content Easy to Scan
  • Break text into headings, bullet points, and short paragraphs. Most users skim before deciding to read. Avoid a million images.
Test with Real Users
  • Conduct usability testing to find out where users struggle and improve based on real feedback.
Minimize User Effort
  • Fewer clicks, faster access to info, and easier forms all contribute to a smoother experience—remove unnecessary steps wherever possible.
