This guide should definitely include big sections on user research, discovery, and validation. These may be left off because they are thought of as more "product designer" skills, but what if I told you that distinction is meaningless? In practice, you'll have to do it even if you don't want to — but you should want to, because it's the way to actually make things good.
- runarberg 4y agoI agree, user research is an invaluable skill of a good UI/UX developer. I guess this is a roadmap, not a guide, and the author makes a passing mention of it, so I consider that sufficient. As a UI developer, I’ve never actually learned to conduct user research (skill that I’m definitely lacking), but during my time in the industry I’ve definitely learned to listen to my graphic designers that actually conduct these research, both to listen to and materialize their interpretation, and to bring my own interpretation. As a novice UI/UX developer I for sure had a lot of biases about user interaction which were deeply flawed, UI/UX research is a really helpful tool in braking these biases.
