UI and UX, though often used together, are actually two separate but interrelated aspects of design.
- UI (User Interface) design focuses on the visual elements and interactive components that users directly interact with. This includes things like screens, buttons, menus, icons, fonts, and color schemes. In short, it’s the look and feel of a product.
- UX (User Experience) design on the other hand, considers the entire user journey and strives to create a positive and meaningful interaction. This involves understanding user needs, conducting user research, and designing an interface that is not only easy to use but also efficient and enjoyable.
Think of UI design as the stage set for a play, and UX design as the overall plot and how it unfolds for the audience. Both are necessary for a successful production!pen_sparktunesharemore_vert
