What is UI or UX design?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 9:36 pm

UI or UX design is the process of creating a user interface for a computer system, or for any device with a screen, such as a phone or a TV. It also refers to the design of any aspect of the user experience, including the layout, colours, and features of the user interface.

UI design typically focuses on creating a visual design that is effective and appealing to the user, while also ensuring that the user’s interactions with the system are efficient and easy to understand.

PRO TIP: Most people think that UI and UX design are the same thing but they are actually quite different. UI stands for User Interface and refers to the graphical layout of an app or website. UX stands for User Experience and refers to how easy or difficult it is to use the app or website.

UI design can be used to create any type of user interface, such as a desktop application, a web page, or a mobile application.

UI design is often used in conjunction with UX design, which focuses on the design of the user experience. UX design can include the creation of mockUPS, wireframes, and user tests.

UI design can be challenging, and requires a good understanding of both user behaviour and interface design. It is often used by designers who work in the field of software engineering, digital media, graphic design, or marketing.
