When developing a simple user interface (UI), it’s important to focus on the following five things:

Clarity and simplicity

The user interface should be as simple and intuitive as possible. The user must be able to quickly understand what functions are available and how to use them. Avoid unnecessary elements that can confuse the user.

Consistency

The different parts of the user interface must be visually and functionally consistent. Use the same colors, fonts, and behavior patterns throughout the interface so users can anticipate how different parts work.

User centricity

Understanding the users’ needs and goals is key. Make the user interface such that it serves their tasks and goals. Use user testing and collect feedback to ensure that solutions are user-friendly.

Ease of navigation

Users should find the functions and contents they want effortlessly. Well-designed navigation makes the user interface logical and easy to use. Use clear menus and links, and avoid too deep a hierarchy.

Responsiveness and speed

The user interface must react to the user’s actions quickly and give clear feedback. For example, clicking and responding to commands should be fast, and in error situations, clear instructions should be provided on how the user can correct the situation.

These basic principles will help you create a user-friendly and functional user interface.
