Devaluation of UX
|
I've just gone through some of the screenshots I collected over the past few months. I’d like to share one of them with you. I don’t have a universal solution for rating UX. What I want to share is this thought: sometimes people come up with a great solution, but due to human nature, lifestyle, or whatever-you-want-to-call-it, the solution ends up becoming useless.

Sometimes I used definitions provided by Google AI, because it was challenging for me to convey/explain the ideas with precise words. But mostly there are links and definitions from Wikipedia and other resources. There are many notions and abbreviations: CIE 1931, RGB, sRGB, HSL, CMYK, Oklab, LCH, OKLCH,...
There is the grayscale filter in CSS that can make your pictures completely grayscale. It's useful when you want to show a bunch of logos, making them grayscale by default, but when you hover over them, they become colorful. But! Another trick is to use grayscale on the <html> tag. This way you can look at your app from a different perspective and see how it looks without colors. This is useful if you want to see what draws users' attention most, whether such elements as links, buttons, and...
