For many developers, interface and UX-designers agile-approach seems unusual. They prefer to think of the whole concept of the project at once, including the various parts of fallback interface and user interaction. It’s like a classic waterfall. Moreover, the level of “concepts” to “visual design” often requires a quantum leap when the interface designer focuse on business and determine their own product appearance.
It creates a number of problems, typical for the “waterfall” development, for example:
- Part of rendered interfaces can be unrealizable in practice. That causes the conflicts between teams and UX-experts.
- The interfaces can not be detailed enough. That leads to failure or iterations of timing (because of the need to develop the missing interface urgently), or to faulty parts in the interfaces (“programmer” design).
- Premature concentration on pixels and fonts instead of studying business requirements and usability concepts of the project.
In the proposed report we will analyze a practical case of making web-interface of the application, work on which was based on the ideas of leading foreign specialists in the development of interfaces.
