User Interface (UI) - Includes visual elements such as buttons, text, images, entry fields and anything the user can/could interact with.

User Experience (UX) - Includes how a user interacts with and experiences a product.

Difference between User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX)?

UX without UI is like brain without a body & a UI without UX is like a human without it’s brain.

Why UI/UX Matters:

• First Impressions: Users decide whether they like your site or app within 50 milliseconds. Bad UI = trust destroyed instantly.
• Competitive Edge: Good UI/UX is often what makes users choose your product over another with similar features.
• Scaling: Consistent design helps maintain brand identity as you scale and adapt for new devices. (We will discuss about branding further in the class)

A solid UI consists of good typography, color theory, breathable spacing, maintaining consistency, and responsive design.
