  • Conduct UX research, outline personas and key user scenarios, prepare user journey maps.
  • Create wireframes and clickable prototypes.
  • Conduct visual identity analysis, prepare a design concept, create a branded UI kit with ready-to-use components (icons, buttons, colors, fonts, etc.), animations, specifications, and assets for developers.
