1. How to use this UX path
UI/UX Foundations · 52 pages source format
UX is evidence over taste. This path: JTBD → flows → heuristics → tests → IA → states → a11y. Pick one app to analyze all 6 weeks — consistency beats novelty.
What you'll learn
- Pick a subject app
- Evidence notebook habit
- 4–6 week map
Choose subject app
Real app you use weekly: banking, food delivery, learning platform. You will map, test, and redesign parts of it.
Do this now
Create FigJam or Notion “UX Evidence Notebook”. Paste app name and primary job users hire it for.

Rules
Never say “I don’t like it.” Say “User may not see X because Y.” Test with 3 people minimum before calling a redesign done.
- Observations ≠ solutions (capture both separately)
- Test the design, not the person
- Fix the worst friction first — not the prettiest screen
Do this now
Write 3 rules in notebook header.
