UX Introduction

Here is a brief and straightforward overview of UX (User Experience):

UX (User Experience) is about a person’s experience with a product, website, or app, and focuses on designing an experience that is easy, useful, and enjoyable.

It consists of a few key elements:

  • Usability – Easy to use?
  • Accessibility – Can everyone access it?
  • Desirability – Does it look and feel good?
  • Functionality – Does it behave as expected?

👉 Good UX = Happy users who return. It is not only about design, but about how you feel overall throughout the journey.

Module 1: Foundations of UI-UX

What is UI-UX? Key principles.

Understanding the Fundamentals

🧠 UX (User Experience) User experience refers to the way a user feels when interacting with a product or service. It relates to usability, accessibility, flow, and the overall satisfaction of the entire experience.

Example: How easy is it to find and purchase a product on an e-commerce website?

🎨 UI (User Interface)

The User interface is the visual layer of the product (colors, typography, icons, buttons, layout, etc.). It makes sure the design is visual, consistent, and easy to use.

Example: The style of a login form, the shapes of buttons, or the icons in a mobile application.

🔑 Core Principles of UI-UX
Design 1. Clarity and Simplicity Don‘t confuse users. Use a clean layout, simple navigation, and clear language.
 2. Consistency. Design elements (colours, buttons, interactions) should feel similar across all pages.
3. User-Centric Design. You should be designing for users—not trends. Consider user goals, context, and limitations.
4. Accessibility. Your design should work for everyone—even those with disabilities. Use proper contrast, alt text, and keyboard accessibility.
5. Feedback and Response. You should let users know their actions have outcomes (e.g., loading states, success/failure messages).
6. Visual Hierarchy. You should direct users using contrast, size, spacing, and typography to draw attention to what is most important.
7. Mobile Responsiveness. Ensure your design is compatible with all devices, including phones, tablets, and desktops.
8. Fast Load Time and Performance.  Slow product = bad UX. Be mindful of the speed of your design.
