Study Notes
Introduction
- UI Design focuses on the visual elements that a user interacts with, such as buttons, menus, and icons
- Types of user interfaces include: Graphical User Interface (GUI), Command-Line Interface (CLI), Natural Language Interface (NLI), and Menu-Driven Interface
UI Design and UX Design
- Interaction Design (IxD) acts as a bridge between User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX)
- IxD focuses on the interaction between the user and the UI elements, influencing the overall user experience
- User Experience (UX) Design encompasses all facets of user interaction with a product or service
- UX Design's roots are in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), which focuses on understanding and improving how humans interact with computers
- UX Design builds on the foundations laid by HCI, using the collected information to enhance user experiences
User Experience (UX) Design Elements
- The UX Design framework outlined by Jesse James Garrett includes five core elements:
- Strategy: establishes the product's goals and objectives, understanding the target audience and the value proposition
- Scope: determines the features and functionalities that will be included in the product
- Structure: defines the information architecture and navigation of the product, ensuring that content is organized and accessible
- Skeleton: focuses on the layout and structure of the interface
- This includes the placement of elements and the visual hierarchy
- Surface: addresses the visual design and aesthetic aspects of the product
- Includes elements like typography, color palette, and imagery
User Interface Design (UID)
- User interface design is the design of the point of interaction between humans and computers
- It determines the look and behavior of the interface
- Four key categories of UI elements exist:
- Input controls: allow users to provide information, such as checkboxes, buttons, text fields, and dropdown lists
- Navigational elements: aid user navigation, including search fields, sliders, and hamburger menus
- Informational components: convey useful information to the user, for example through message boxes, notifications, and progress bars
- Containers: organize content into sections, keeping elements within a reasonable width for optimal usability
- An example of a container in UI design is the accordion menu, which vertically stacks headers that can be clicked to reveal content
Types of UI Design
- Many types of UI design exist, with some of the most common including:
- Graphical User Interface (GUI): relies on visual elements for interaction, such as windows, icons, buttons, and menus
- Command-Line Interface (CLI): a text-based interface where users type commands to interact with the system.
- Natural Language Interface (NLI): allows users to interact with systems using everyday language, such as through voice assistants
- Menu-Driven Interface: provides users with a list of options, commonly used in ATMs or systems focused on simplicity
