UI/UX DESIGN COMPLETE COURSE
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles, tools, and techniques of User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) design. Whether you’re starting a career in design or looking to enhance your digital product skills, this course will equip you with practical knowledge to create intuitive, user-centered designs.
WHAT IS UI/ UX DESIGN?
UI/UX design refers to two closely related areas in product design, especially for digital products like websites, apps, and software:
- UI (User Interface) Design
- Focuses on the look and feel of a product.
- Deals with visual design elements such as colors, typography, icons, buttons, spacing, and layout.
- Goal: To make the product aesthetically appealing, consistent, and easy to navigate.
Example: The color of a “Sign Up” button, the style of menus, and the arrangement of elements on a page.
- UX (User Experience) Design
- Focuses on the overall experience a user has while interacting with a product.
- Involves research, usability testing, wireframing, prototyping, and user journey mapping.
Goal: To make the product functional, user-friendly, and enjoyable, solving the user’s problems with minimal friction.
