Design Documentations - vonix-id/styleguide GitHub Wiki

User Experience Designers create several key documents to ensure that the software project is user-friendly, visually appealing, and functionally efficient. These documents collectively help ensure that the UI/UX design is well thought-out, user-centered, and aligned with the project's goals. They also facilitate better communication and collaboration between designers, developers, and other stakeholders. Here are some typical documents they produce:

Documentation Type	Description
User Personas	Detailed descriptions of fictional users representing the different target audience segments. Includes demographic information, behaviors, goals, and pain points.
User Journey Maps	Visual representations of the steps users take to achieve specific goals within the product. Identify user interactions, emotions, and potential obstacles.
Wireframes	Low-fidelity sketches or digital blueprints outlining the structure of the user interface. Focus on layout and content placement without detailed design elements.
Mockups	High-fidelity visual representations of the UI, showing color schemes, typography, and design elements. Provide a realistic preview of the final product.
Prototypes	Interactive versions of mockups, allowing stakeholders to experience the product's flow and functionality. Used for user testing and feedback.
Design System/Style Guide	Comprehensive guidelines on the visual and interaction design principles. Includes color palettes, typography, iconography, and component libraries to ensure consistency across the product.
Usability Test Reports	Documents summarizing the findings from usability testing sessions. Highlight user issues, provide recommendations, and help prioritize improvements.
Information Architecture	Detailed structure of the information hierarchy, including sitemaps and content categorization. Ensures content is organized logically and easily navigable.
Accessibility Guidelines	Documentation outlining the best practices and standards for making the product accessible to users with disabilities. Includes compliance with WCAG.
Interaction Specifications	Detailed descriptions of how users will interact with the UI components. Includes animations, transitions, and feedback mechanisms for user actions.
