UX Design

Systematically designing user experiences -- from strategy to validated interaction.

Scope

Use this skill when: You are planning user research, creating personas, defining information architectures, documenting user flows, designing interaction patterns, or auditing existing products for UX quality.

Principles

1. The User Determines the Design -- Not the Designer

Every design decision is based on real user data. Assumptions without validation are speculation.

2. Design Experiences, Not Surfaces

UX encompasses the entire interaction -- from first perception to long-term usage.

3. Simplicity Beats Completeness

One feature that everyone understands is more valuable than ten features that nobody can find.
