Ask HN: How important is UI/UX design in side-hustle project?
Hi, everyone.
Recently I've been building a website that you can simply think of as 500px and Reddit r/photocritique combined.
As of now, I've done building core backend APIs for it, and to be frank, I find it pretty time-consuming and a bit exhausting to do frontend.
How much should this concern me?
Do things like button paddings, inner shadows, round borders, and choice between #d9d9d9 and #ffffff matter?
- husarcik 3y agoIt depends on the industry really. For a lot of things, it can be as simple as hackernews as long as you deliver your message appropriately. You should prioritize usability and readability above design as a solo developer.
- GyuminLee531 3y agoThanks. Hackernews ui does the job really. After all, the whole ui thing is about usability.
- solardev 3y agoJust use some boilerplate like Tailwind or MUI with their pre built components and templates.
