Interfaces and politics
What the first thought when you read the title?
Is it like Apple the part of Democrat?
YEAPP!!
Hahaha kidding
Politics in here isn’t the literal meaning as “politics”
All we know that politics can change our prespective, our side, and even our behaviour toward ourselves or others, right?
and
Interface can do the same!
So, here we are, discuss about why Interface and politics is inline
At its core, interface design is all about creating a seamless and intuitive experience for users. From the colors and layout to the functionality and flow, every aspect of an interface is carefully crafted to make it easy and enjoyable to use. This has led to the development of countless innovative and game-changing technologies that have transformed the way we live and work. If we put in the short way, Interface can change the world around us. Just the way politicians interest do.
If we going to go deep again, basically interface has three goals
Help
When you’re using a new program or app, it can be confusing! That’s why the interface should provide you with some help if you get stuck. Maybe it’s a little message that pops up with a tip, or maybe it’s a whole help section with tutorials and explanations. Whatever it is, the goal is to make sure you can use the program to do what you need to do.
Understand
Have you ever used a program that was really complicated and hard to figure out? That’s no fun! The people who create interfaces want to make sure that everything is easy to understand, so you can use the program without getting frustrated. That means things like clear menus and buttons, and instructions that make sense.
Change
Everybody’s different, right? That means that we all like different things, and we all work in different ways. The people who create interfaces want to make sure that you can change things to suit your own preferences. Maybe you want to move the buttons around, or change the colors, or set up shortcuts. Whatever it is, the goal is to make sure that you can use the program in the way that works best for you.
So, those are the goals of an interface: Help, Understand, and Change. By keeping these goals in mind, the people who create these programs can make sure that you have the best possible experience when you’re using them!
I give you example to make it clear about how powerful interface is.
Example
Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have changed the way we interact with each other and consume news.
These platforms have created a space for people to share their thoughts and opinions with the world, allowing them to connect with others and participate in public discourse in new and exciting ways. As we look at the interface goals, social media grab all of the aspect: Help, understand and change.
Similarly, mobile apps like Uber and Airbnb have disrupted traditional industries and created new markets for sharing economy services. By leveraging the power of interface design, these companies have made it easy for people to book rides and accommodations with just a few taps on their smartphones, changing the way we travel and experience the world around us.
So, the next time you use an app or website, take a moment to appreciate the hard work and creativity that went into making it a seamless and enjoyable experience.
And who knows, maybe the interface will even make you smile! Have a great day, and cheers to the amazing world of interface design!
Takeaway:
- Interface design aims to help, understand, and change to suit user preferences.
- Interface design has the power to disrupt traditional industries and create new markets, similar to politics.
- Examples of powerful interface design include social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, and mobile apps like Uber and Airbnb.
