UX is all about simplicity
A good interface is like a joke, you don't need to explain it.
If something is unclear - clarify it
If something is arduous - lighten the load
If something is complex - make it simpler
If something is over verbose - strip it back
If something is ambiguous - clarify it
If something is big - make it feel manageable
If people get lost let them find their way out
If something goes wrong - let people recover
If something seems pointless - show the value
If something is dry add some levity
If something is dreary add some delight
If something needs explaining - explain it carefully
Make the important stuff important and the other stuff less so
Less is more (but you probably knew that)
Make desired actions obvious - show the way
If something feels daunting - provide support
If something goes right - say it did
If something goes bad - say it did
If something requires effort - set expectations
If something feels risky provide reassurance
If something feels fragile make it feel solid
If somethings looks great it’ll help to make it feel great
Bring structure to the unstructured
Don’t presume anything
Don’t try to be clever
