Design Principles
From Gestalt theory to modern micro-interactions, UI/UX design requires understanding human perception patterns and behavioral triggers for effective interaction.
Modern Frameworks
React, Web Components, and design systems like Figma and Adobe XD are reshaping how we prototype and implement interactive user interfaces.
Design in Practice
Design Systems Overview
Robust UI design systems require:
- Atomic design principles for reusable components
- Type scale and spacing systems
- Cross-platform accessibility standards

Accessibility Best Practices
WCAG 2.1 guidelines form the foundation for accessible design, emphasizing:
- ARIA attributes for screen readers
- Color contrast ratios (4.5:1 minimum)
- Keyboard navigation support
