INITIAL CONCEPTS
This was an iterative group assignment, where I worked with 3 other developers to create a web application. I was the lead UX designer and front-end developer. Above is a copy of the presentation we used to showcase our work. We had many mockups that used more of an engineering aproach to development but below you will see that we still utilized wireframes and mockups to create the finished product.
WIREFRAMES
We knew we wanted users to be able to search their recipes, access their shopping lists, and save everything they were doing within the website. Below are the first wireframes we created.
USER TESTING RESULTS & FINAL MOCKUPS
User testing results indicated that we needed to update the color functionality to be more accessible to our users. We also improved the overall navigation from the results. Below are our final mockups of the design after user testing.
