To help clear things up a bit, in this video I'm going to cover the roles, tools, and expectations of day to day life for both jobs. At the end, I share a few opinions on which is right for you to pursue.
In a nutshell, UX design makes websites functional and UI design makes websites beautiful.
UX design, short for user experience design, is a very analytical process that is heavily based on research to find out how to design a a product in a way that it solves the customer's problem(s).

No argument there🤝
8:59 Quick, Simple & Clear Analogy for those who are in a rush.
Great tip! Good looking out, thanks dude! Have a good one!
Thanks and incredible analogy! Love it. Also the rest of the video.
so ui/ux design profession has been around since 1990s ??
to complete the analogy; The programmer Develops the brain & the functionality of this body.
Love the way you explained. Sometimes it's hard to explain what a UX/UI design is. I always said UX build the skeleton and UI place the makeup.
best ui vs. ux description i have 👂 heard ... and the ui ux free links are extremely valuable ... thanks jesse you are good ppl man
You are super welcome. Stay tuned, more content coming each week 👍
YES SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR LOL

Jesse’s level of relax”ness” when speaking, as the kind of confidence I pray to have.
Oh wow! Thanks so much. Keep working on it, you’ll get there
The best video to introduce differences between UI and Ux description, thanks!
I agree with you that being a multidisciplinary person help you on your work. I am a senior business administration student , and I just read "design of everyday things and don't make me think books." I will dive into this both field UI&UX after two months later ( I will be graduating , so I have a more time to study intensly) Best regards! :)
great
Finally! A clear definition of the two roles. Thank you Jesse for taking the time to do these vids. This was extremely helpful!
One of the best description of UI vs. UX I ever heard, and thanks for the book proposal, I already ordered both! ;-)
Awesome
By far, one of the most comprehensive and easy-to-digest explanation of ui/ux design I have watched. I have been considering the 2 but never really knew which one to pursue. After watching this video, I am now certain ui is my path! Thanks!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m so so glad I was able to help. Get after it!! 🤘
Thank you very much for the fantastic educational video. It really takes a big heart to spend personal time making content like this for the benefit of people out there, totally free. Thanks once again.
You are so welcome
world needs more Jesse Showalters ! you are amazing to give and share your experience and skills to everyone and hope peace for everybody. thank you !
Thanks so much
modifique retiro
couldn't have found a better explanation...thanks so much
First time I’ve really understood the difference between UI and UX and what to expect. Excellent explanation. Thanks.
Yaaaaaa!
I taught a university class for computer science students around 2000 called “End User Computing.” We touched on stuff they didn’t get in their programming classes, including UX/UI, documentation, support, and so forth. I was the first one I knew to use the Don Norman and Steve Krug books in a class. Glad to know they’re still seen as good resources. Great video! Thanks.
Solid truth stands he test of time
Awesome stuff!!!! There is something is up with your newsletter sign-up page.
Hey man, thanks so much for letting me know! 🤙🤙
Finally I understand the difference between UI and UX design! I work as a graphic designer for a private university, and I think that both principles could come in VERY handy! I'm definitely going to look into doing a beginner's course, and I'm definitely going to check out the links. THANK YOU!
You are so welcome 👍🏼
Wow, I'm a graphic designer switching over to web developer, and I've been avoiding UI UX jobs when applying! This video made it a lot easier to understand UI UX, and I'm going to start applying to them as well!
That’s great 🤙🏼
Hi there
Currently im studying Graphic Design and im actually pretty interested in it. Would you recommend me taking the path of becoming a Graphic Designer and do you have any tips that could help me along the way 😊
Thank you
@@t4lks3ns34 Graphic design really is great! And there are a lot of job opportunities for it. But a lot of companies now a day want you to know HTML, CSS, and WordPress too. So I suggest learning those, along with mastering Photoshop and Illustrator. Just study trending art, and try to recreate it.
@@GuitarsRgood7 Im thinking of taking on an apprenticeship in Graphic Design after i finish studying my A levels. What do you think about that?
@@t4lks3ns34 Yeah anything that lets you get experience would be good. Especially if it's paid!
Love this video! Can't wait to start my masters in UX design soon :) I kind of went a 180 degree career swap from Dietetics -- but I'm convincing myself that nutrition is the basic building block for a healthy lifestyle/experience and UXD cognitively (like nutrition) can make life better - which plays a big part what I'd want to leave behind while I'm living. Also, creating, making people smile and feeling richer! It's also why I youtube on the side too ;)
xx your new subscriber,
Katy
Katy thanks for sharing a bit of your story. I'm stoked to hear about your drive and passion. Do what you love 👍🏼
wow, this is brilliant
hi! so I was scrolling through the comments & read yours & was SO excited to see someone who was in the same position as I am right now! I graduated with a BS in Nutritional Sciences & really want to go a complete 180 & get into UX/UI Design. If you have any tips or pointers, I’d love to hear them😭🥺
currently studying graphic/communication design and thinking about becoming an UX or UI designer. I love to design and make things more beautiful but also convenient.
Thanks for the video!!! It was very helpful
Your so welcome, good luck on your design journey
I love your energy Jesse, you make me feel very motivated to learn! Hope all is well for you
Thanks so so much!! Go get em, girl!!
This was probably one of the most helpful videos I've seen on this topic. I especially found the last bit helpful where you spoke about your experiences and how the two roles are in the real world.
Jesse, this is the most concise and easy to understand breakdown between UX and UI Design. My son Alaka'i was in the youth group at OL when you were around and he is learning photography and graphic design and he has been pouring over your videos to learn even more.
Probably the best explanation of the differences and similarities I have seen. Good job man, and thank you!
You are so welcome!
i've been ssing around on a friends soft soft for years, finally bought it. I found your videos and instantly subscribed and have been
The best definitions I have ever heard from a smart designer! I'm being learning a lot from your videos and it's also really good to see the way you think into your creative process. It's inspiring and funny! Love watching you! Keep doing this amazing work!
Really great video about the difference. I was totally confused with both.. now I know which path to go. It will be much helpful if you could share any links where to find Free courses to pursue career in UI. Any course which helps the one who knows the software already. May be any certificate will help me restart my career after my 10 year gap.
Fantastic video, I am newly researching these careers and yours is definitely the most understandable and enjoyable one to watch! Thank you!
Awesome 👍🏼
Finally! Someone that gives a good and understandable explanation!
Thanks so much, Alejandro!
best ui vs ux ever and loved your current experience with the blended roles!
Great Job ! I am a BI Developer using Tableau and wear the UI/UX hat often. Thank You and keep um coming!
That’s so rad!! Go get em!
Thanks for clarifying the difference. I always thought I was both a UI/UX guy and this video confirmed it. The job market right now is crazy good for both disciplines, to the point that I'm sliding away from my own company to go work with an established firm or startup with a solid salary. I'm really excited about it, too.
Thanks so much for the support, friend!!
Pls can u guide me through this career path🙏
Thank You Jesse for this! Even if I knew a lot before, this is really good and new insight for me. Im so happy I found you!
Thanks so much, Anna! Stoked for you!
About to make a big career change - THANK YOU for these excellent distinctions!
You’ve got this, Bernadette!! Go make rad things!! 🤙🤙
Hey Bernadette, considering this career change for myself, would love to know how did that work out for you!
Your explanation was clear and concise. I decided to add the UX/UI skillset to my graphic design arsenal - I have seen it as a requirement for a lot of jobs - but I don't have any experience in it. I was looking up definitions, I understood the differences pretty well, but your video and explanation clarified everything for me and gave me confidence to move forward with my decision.
Thank you for your video, you have no idea how much I needed this.
Subscribed!
- Love, from L.A. \m/,
Antonio! Thank you so so much for your kind words! So humbled and honored to be of help. Welcome aboard! 🤘🤙
Great video bud. Transitioning from cyber security to product development and now I can start my conversation with my UI/UX Team and not sound like an amateur :)
Yeah! You’ve got this! Stoked for you!
Wow, thank you! So concise! Thanks for all the helpful links as well, great information through and through. I’m a graphic designer, even went to art school and this still helped me a ton. Will prove extremely useful as more and more job positions are now listing UX/UI skills. Thanks again :)
Yes!! I’m so so glad I was able to help out! Thank you for your kind words!
Finally! A great explanation about the differences between the two. Great video!
Thanks so much, Jeremy!! Glad I was able to help out!! You’re rad 🤘🤘🤘
Please do more videos on ux design like possible job interview questions, coding especially for ux, a day in life as an ux designer, etc...
Those are great video topics, I'll start brainstorming for them 👍
please do this if possible, will appreciate this greatly, plus just discovered your channel, sub
Also how do they deliver their deliverables, what softwares do they use, how do the deliverables look like, what’s the duration of a project n how long does one maintain n update a project. Do UX designers conduct user interviews. How do their portfolios look like? Thx!
ruclips.net/video/JXFZnFtMxT0/видео.html
Just what I am looking for, a clear explanation, using layman's term, on the difference between UX and UI design. It takes a special talent to help people understand how something works by mixing logical, analytical, and visual presentations altogether. Great job!
Thank you so so much for your kind words, Edgar!! I super appreciate it!!
Pretty clear, thanks for the extensive explanation of the roles.
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for this video! this is super helpful. I am thinking of transitioning from my design career into ui design, and wanted a crash course foundation of what is involved. I am super excited to learn more. thanks again!
Yes! So stoked for your journey, Liz! Happy to help!
Unbelievably well spoken and explained... I finally have a very clear understanding. Great video! :)
Thanks Kat, I just did a similar video about Front-end and Back-end development. Maybe you would like that one too 👍🏼
@@JesseShowalter that's definitely something I'd be interested in. I work with engineers and while I'm not one, I'd love to understand what they're talking about 😂
I think a lot of your videos will help me so I'll binge through them for sure 😎
This is the channel I needed right now to learn more about UX and UI. Thanks a lot for your explanations and all those interesting resources! Already a big fan of the channel and you as a person.
Thanks Jesse for your overview. It's so nice that you try to help people to have aware of UI & UX design.
Thanks for checking it out. Glad it helped.
Hi Jesse!
This is the best description. You have helped me so much with this video I really appreciate it! Moving from 8 years of print, digital and brand design to UI hopefully UX world. If I could give you five thumbs up, I would :-D thanks again!
Thorough and concise - 1000 cheers mate
thanks for watching
Thanks for this Jesse! Big help in my decision as an Interior Designer looking for a career change.
Excellent. Simple. Clear. Very helpful. Thank you!
Thanks so much, Linsy!
I know this video has been out for a min, but it was INCREDIBLY helpful!! Thank you!! Great explanations, great content. 💯
Thank you so much for the support, Josiah!! Have a rad day! 🤘
Never been so clear about the two jobs. Thank you very much..
I teach web design to graphic design college students. The most popular question I get is: Should I pursue a UI or UX job? I LOVE how you explained it, definitely sharing this video in my classes this fall. Keep up the good work :)
Thanks so much!! You just made my day!
This is super helpful! I'm a traditional print designer, and I'm having a hard time transitioning to the digital world.
You’ve got this!!
Excellent Video Jesse, probably the best and most easy to understand and concise :) Thank You
Thanks so much
The best explanation I have seen in youtube. Thanks a lot for the video!
You are so welcome 👍🏼
Very quality video. In nowadays it's very rare to find a video like this one
Wow thanks!!! I really appreciate the support and encouragement. Thanks for watching
Thank you for your thorough explanation. I’d also like to say, you are a fantastic communicator. You keep me interested, but provide meaty information. Thank you again.
Much appreciated 👍🏼
when i begin learning web design i spent a lote of times searching and reading to understand exactly what is the deffirence , and i can tell you right now that you are a good explainer you will save a lote of times for beginners
Thank you so much, I’m so glad I was able to help you out!! 🤘
At last. Bulls eye. I asked nearly 50 people this question, including course instructors of UI/UX. they all gave me a broad answer but nothing really as clear. It's a real shame. But you really did demystify the puzzle. Love the video. Well done.
Thank you so very much for your support! I’m so stoked and honored to help out anyway I can 🤘
A lot of great tips in here. Thanks for all the effort making this ep happen!
Here are my thoughts:
A. You look cute, your tattoos are gorgeous, the designs on the wall and the soundtrack just makes everything cooler(UI)
B. You totally nailed the explanation of a UI and UX designer. Watching this video was the best thing I've done today. Great content. I'm so subscribing to your channel(UX)
In essence, you did an amazing job breaking down these interrelated concepts. I recently started a course on "the fundamentals of UI design" and it's been amazing so far because I'm a creative designer.
Thank you Jesse!
Thanks so much for support, Esther!
Welcome aboard!! 🤙
Saved. Thanks so much, Jesse!
So so glad I got to help you out! Go make amazing things!! 🤘
Thank you! You give really clear explanation and your points are organized and it's all visually pleasing to watch, well done.
Thank you so much for the support.

Thanks so much
Nice job describing the 2 roles. I hate when people think it is the same thing, when it isn't.
Thanks for supporting 👍
Loved the video, Jesse. Very didactic and even someone who is not from tech or visual design areas would be able to understand.
Amazing video Jesse, your explanations are easy to understand, it's most definitely helped with some research that I am doing. You've got a subscription from me.

Amazing! Thanks so much for watching👍🏼
