UI stands for ‘user interface’, this is the graphic outline of an application. It optimizes and designs the items that the user interacts with like the images, text, entry fields, etc. The UI designer decides how the final appearance of the site or application will be. They keep in mind what the user wants and design accordingly for better user interaction.

UX stands for ‘User Experience’. Their main task is understanding the user’s behavior. They identify their target audience, conduct research, and analyze the result that aids them in the decision-making process. They have to keep in mind user’s need to provide a great user experience. UI and UX go hand in hand. This profession came into the limelight when everything shifted to online platforms due to the ongoing pandemic.
