- User Research :
Have an idea what your audience wants and needs.
Provide value for users.
Focus on benefits more than features.
- Usability Testing :
Avoid false-consensus – tendency to assume others are like us.
Build products that users love, not necessarily what you love.
Test product with real users. (Not friends, family).
- Functional Minimalism :
Convey information needed as quickly as possible.
All information should be valuable and relevant.
Less visual information for text to be noticed and heighten the impact.
- Rapid Prototyping :
Create a model of the product for testing and validation.
Group of users to give feedback on the prototype.
- Simple and Consistent :
Users find it easy to understand and interact with a product.
Consistency in style, color, and general outlook.
Design remains familiar to users.
- Minimize Potential Errors :
Eliminate error-prone conditions as much as possible.
Notify users of any possible error triggers before they begin using.
