Have you ever left a website within seconds because it looked messy or felt frustrating? That’s poor UI/UX at work. In today’s digital world, users expect more than just functionality — they expect flow, emotion, and ease.
What is UI/UX Exactly?
UI (User Interface) is how a site looks — think buttons, spacing, layout, animations.
UX (User Experience) is how it feels — is it intuitive, fluid, and enjoyable?
Poor UI/UX Hurts
- Confusing layout — users give up quickly
- Slow loading — visitors lose patience fast
- No visual hierarchy — users don’t know where to focus
“Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” – Steve Jobs
Great UI/UX Feels Effortless
When a design flows, users don’t even notice — because nothing gets in the way. Great design removes friction, guides users with clarity, and leaves a lasting impression.
Fact: 94% of first impressions are design-related. Layout, responsiveness, and color schemes matter more than most realize.
How I Improved My Own UI/UX
- Analyzed top-tier sites like Apple, Stripe, Airbnb
- Balanced whitespace with content density
- Used Figma to wireframe before coding
- Continually asked: “Would I enjoy this as a user?”
