Summary

Hopefully, you now have a better understanding of user experience as a discipline and the many facets of UX that contribute to creating high-quality digital products that tick all the usability boxes. Basic UX principles, such as HCI, design thinking, and UCD, are only a handful of the methodologies that contribute to UX as a whole. These methodologies have a never-ending cycle, which means the UX of a product is never done; it's an ongoing iterative process by choosing a suitable methodology for your product, for example, a cross-functional team collaboration with Agile UX or an analytical-driven approach, such as Lean UX. It's all about what is right for the project you're working on. In the first chapter, we mostly referred to digital products, as the concepts and methodologies discussed are usually applied to any digital product, but from this point forward, we'll focus on UX for websites only. In the next chapter, we'll look at best practices for creating user interfaces, including Google Material Design and iOS Human Interface Guidelines.
