UI means user interface. UI design refers to an aesthetically pleasing system development that enables human-computer interactions. It involves a combination of colors, typography, buttons, and visuals.
A UI is a system in which users interact with a computer on a desktop or mobile device. For example, it can be an eCommerce website with a product catalog, user account, and a payment system.
The main difference is that UI design is all about the looks and functions, and UX design is about users interacting with the UI. However, one can’t go without the other to make a good product.
A good eCommerce UI/UX example is H&M website. It has great navigation and offers detailed categorization, so customers can quickly find a relevant item, such as a Christmas gift.
Another eCommerce example is the Nike website. It uses hierarchy and visual cues to improve user experience and promote better sales.
The difference between UX and UI design in the aspects of a product you are looking at. While UI design is about making a product visually appealing and functional, UX design is more abstract and concerned with the way a person will use the interface.
Consistency in UX and user interface design refers to creating uniformity in objects, functions, and behavior. An interface that can be used intuitively offers a sense of control and reliability for the users.
Coding isn’t a part of a UI/UX designer’s job, but understanding programming at least at a basic level can help develop interfaces more effectively.
