What is UX?
UI vs. UXUI is short for “User Interface.”
In the software world, this means everything that shows up on the screen: the images, text, diagrams, and widgets as well as their color, size, and positioning.
UX stands for “User Experience.” It’s much more comprehensive than UI. It’s the entire experience a user has when they use your product! When you order something from Amazon and it comes a day early, that’s good UX. When your phone doesn’t wake you up with notifications, that’s good UX too.
