Nope, UX is not UI.

What is User Experience design? How is it different from User Interface design? What if all buttons were now alpacas?

In this episode, we introduce the field of UX design and some of the basic principles you should know to design and develop great experiences.

We discuss the fundamentals of good UX: Usability, accessibility, desirability, findability, credibility, the importance of following established patterns...and when to break the rules.
