Hello
hi, i was trying to find that other thread but it dissapeared to me
so imma answer you that question you've made before
the main reason that i've decided this transition to ux/ui is because i've seen that i have more potential in design than programming.
going more deep, i saw it's something that makes me feel alive, i feel joy in doing it, time goes fast when i do something related to like studying/prototyping
especially UX contents
lemme show what iâve been studying. itâs for my thesis in college.
âCognitive engineering design focuses on creating systems that align with human cognitive abilities and limitations, improving usability and reducing errors. It involves analyzing how people think and interact with technology, then applying that knowledge to design more intuitive and effective systems.â
It talks about the two gulfs: evaluation and execution.

I totally get that, my main reason I wanted to do UX is because I wanted to design beautiful things that were functional. It's amazing how integral psychology can be applied to the field
I will say though, that you knowing both coding and design will make you one of those "unicorns" in the field that everyone wants to have
exactly! itâs insane and beautiful.
remember the cognitive engineering subject i was talking about?
read this:
âCognitive engineering is a multidisciplinary field that combines knowledge from:
⢠Cognitive Psychology
⢠Computer Science
⢠Neuroscience
⢠Among other fieldsâŚ
cognitive psychology and neuroscience brought my attention.
about the neuroscience:
â it helps us understand how the brain processes information, emotions, and decision-makingâinsights that designers can use to create more intuitive, engaging, and user-centered experiences.â
yesss
i have these knowledges:
- front end and back end
- power bi
- wordpress
- software engineering in general
- just started to improve my design (ux/ui) skills
haha, sorry if youâre not familiar with these terms
They sound cool
power bi is a tool to make dashboards (itâs the union of the most important informations in a screen, you can use graphics, cards, etc to make it better readable and understandable visually)
example ^
for example if a person in the company see the âtotal customersâ graphic they can make questions like: oh, our number of total customers decreased a lot this month. what are we doing wrong?
wordpress is a tool to make websites without needing to know how to code.
microsoftâs news website is made in wordpress https://news.microsoft.com/source/
