Covers essential topics including proper spacing using 8-point grids, WCAG accessibility contrast ratios (3:1 for UI elements, 4.5:1 for text), button hierarchy and target sizes, typography best practices, and visual consistency. Demonstrates these principles by transforming a poorly designed profile page interface, addressing issues like inadequate contrast, confusing navigation, poor spacing, and accessibility problems. Emphasizes that good UI design follows structured guidelines rather than artistic instinct. 253 9 2. 2 [](https://daily.dev/posts/never-forget-what-they-ve-done-optjnwnak "Never Forget What They've Done") Article Where's Your Ed At·1y Never Forget What They've Done A passionate critique of how major tech companies have degraded user experiences in pursuit of growth and profit. The author argues that technology leaders like Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, and Sam Altman have intentionally made products worse through algorithmic feeds, poor search results, and AI integration that serves corporate interests rather than users. The piece contrasts the promise of early smartphones with today's frustrating digital landscape, calling for accountability and recognition of how these decisions harm billions of users daily. 96 12 3. 3 [](https://daily.dev/posts/top-ui-ux-design-trends-to-watch-in-2025-haur9qmpz "Top UI/UX design trends to watch in 2025") Article Medium·1y Top UI/UX design trends to watch in 2025 UI/UX design in 2025 focuses on intelligent design systems with AI-assisted components, meaningful microinteractions, and subtle personalization. Key trends include voice UI integration, accessibility as a foundation rather than afterthought, smarter Figma workflows, motion design integration, trust-building interfaces, and adaptive UI that responds to user environment. The emphasis shifts from following trends blindly to understanding user needs and creating purposeful, accessible experiences. 87 3 4. 4 [](https://daily.dev/posts/how-ai-is-improving-my-wireframing-process-yszpblwdz "How AI Is Improving My Wireframing Process") Article Atomic Spin·1y How AI Is Improving My Wireframing Process A designer shares how AI tools like ChatGPT, UX Pilot, and v0 have transformed their wireframing workflow. The integration enables faster idea generation, early-stage prototyping capabilities, and efficient discovery of design pattern examples. While AI doesn't replace design judgment, it accelerates the exploration phase and helps solo designers work more efficiently by serving as a collaborative partner in the creative process. 75 1 5. 5 [](https://daily.dev/posts/the-most-hyped-browser-just-died--nplqaryvn "The most hyped browser just died...") Video Awesome·1y The most hyped browser just died... Arc browser, developed by a team of ex-Instagram and Google Chrome engineers, has officially pivoted away from its original vision after realizing their innovative features weren't being used by most users. Despite having a cult following and raising $50 million, the company discovered that 95% of users simply want a reliable browser without complex onboarding. They're now developing DIA, an AI-native browser that uses agents to interact with web pages instead of traditional user-driven browsing, though the success of this pivot remains uncertain. 61 29 6. 6 [](https://daily.dev/posts/the-ux-designer-died-in-2025-ckqo6yui9 "The UX Designer Died in 2025") Video DesignCourse·1y The UX Designer Died in 2025 Shopify has eliminated UX designer titles, simplifying roles to just 'designer' and 'writer'. The author argues that UX design became unnecessarily complex with jargon when it's fundamentally about creating usable interfaces. They contend that good UI designers inherently understand UX through experience, and that the best way to learn UX is by building real products using modern AI tools like Cursor and Bolt, then measuring results with analytics. 58 4 7. 7 [](https://daily.dev/posts/xkcd-alert-sound-fm717dtj7 "xkcd: Alert Sound") Article xkcd·1y xkcd: Alert Sound An xkcd comic exploring the concept of alert sounds, likely highlighting common issues or humorous observations about how notification sounds are designed or experienced in software applications and user interfaces. 52 1 8. 8 [](https://daily.dev/posts/the-decline-of-usability-sbmqlwz5o "The Decline Of Usability") Video ThePrimeTime·1y The Decline Of Usability A critique of modern user interface design trends, arguing that contemporary UIs have become less usable despite claims of improvement. The discussion covers fundamental usability principles like affordances and consistency, examines how industry standards evolved from early computing systems, and critiques modern design paradigms that prioritize aesthetics over functionality. The author argues that experienced users are being alienated by interfaces that remove time-tested UI elements in favor of minimalist designs that lack clear visual cues and intuitive operation. 37 5 9. 9 [](https://daily.dev/posts/testing-a-fresh-look-for-jetbrains-ides-sneqn1vqd "Testing a Fresh Look for JetBrains IDEs") Article JetBrains·1y Testing a Fresh Look for JetBrains IDEs JetBrains introduces two new UI styles called One Island and Many Islands in their 2025.2 EAP release, available in both dark and light modes. The visual update aims to modernize the interface, improve clarity between editor and tool windows, and align with JetBrains' broader design language across products like Toolbox and Fleet. Users can test both styles and provide feedback through surveys to help determine which becomes the new default theme. 31 1 10. 10 [](https://daily.dev/posts/7-common-css-navigation-menu-mistakes-and-how-to-fix-them-ecdhmzlvf "7 common CSS navigation menu mistakes and how to fix them") Article LogRocket·1y 7 common CSS navigation menu mistakes and how to fix them Navigation menus commonly suffer from seven key issues: dropdowns that disappear too quickly when users move their cursor, over-reliance on absolute positioning without proper constraints, using only hover states which breaks mobile functionality, inadequate touch target sizes below WCAG guidelines, hiding elements with display:none which breaks screen reader access, poor stacking context management causing z-index conflicts, and non-responsive layouts that break on smaller screens. Each problem can be solved with specific CSS techniques like transition delays, proper positioning contexts, focus-within selectors, minimum 44px touch targets, opacity/visibility combinations, intentional z-index usage, and flexible layouts. 28 11. 11 [](https://daily.dev/posts/ui-design-tip-try-to-avoid-using-multiple-alignments-12y3r9tyd "UI design tip: Try to avoid using multiple alignments") Article UX Planet·1y UI design tip: Try to avoid using multiple alignments Using multiple text alignments (left, right, center) within a single interface component creates visual complexity and increases cognitive load for users. Sticking to one primary alignment, preferably left-aligned text, creates cleaner, more readable interfaces. The principle is demonstrated through examples showing how mixed alignments force users' eyes to zigzag across content, while consistent alignment creates a tidier appearance and improves usability. 21 12. 12 [](https://daily.dev/posts/how-to-write-documentation-that-increases-sign-ups-jtoh7h5wr "How to Write Documentation That Increases Sign-ups") Article freeCodeCamp·1y How to Write Documentation That Increases Sign-ups Documentation serves as a critical growth tool that can significantly impact user adoption and sign-ups. The key is structuring content into four distinct types: quickstart guides, how-to tutorials, technical references, and explanations. Effective documentation speaks from the user's perspective, addresses real pain points, and makes it easy for users to get help when needed. By understanding user needs, reusing existing content, leveraging AI tools strategically, and gathering early feedback, teams can create documentation that reduces support burden, builds trust, and converts visitors into active users. 19 [See all UX archives](/tags/ux/best-of) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"CollectionPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/tags/ux/best-of/2025/06#page","url":"https://daily.dev/tags/ux/best-of/2025/06","name":"Best UX Posts — June 2025","description":"The most upvoted UX posts from June 2025, curated by the daily.dev community.","isPartOf":{"@type":"WebSite","url":"https://daily.dev"}},{"@type":"ItemList","@id":"https://daily.dev/tags/ux/best-of/2025/06#items","numberOfItems":12,"itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/14-logic-driven-ui-design-tips-to-improve-any-interface-zgcm5q85j","name":"14 logic-driven UI design tips to improve any interface"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/never-forget-what-they-ve-done-optjnwnak","name":"Never Forget What They've Done"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/top-ui-ux-design-trends-to-watch-in-2025-haur9qmpz","name":"Top UI/UX design trends to watch in 2025"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/how-ai-is-improving-my-wireframing-process-yszpblwdz","name":"How AI Is Improving My Wireframing Process"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/the-most-hyped-browser-just-died--nplqaryvn","name":"The most hyped browser just died..."},{"@type":"ListItem","position":6,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/the-ux-designer-died-in-2025-ckqo6yui9","name":"The UX Designer Died in 2025"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":7,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/xkcd-alert-sound-fm717dtj7","name":"xkcd: Alert Sound"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":8,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/the-decline-of-usability-sbmqlwz5o","name":"The Decline Of Usability"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":9,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/testing-a-fresh-look-for-jetbrains-ides-sneqn1vqd","name":"Testing a Fresh Look for JetBrains IDEs"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":10,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/7-common-css-navigation-menu-mistakes-and-how-to-fix-them-ecdhmzlvf","name":"7 common CSS navigation menu mistakes and how to fix them"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":11,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/ui-design-tip-try-to-avoid-using-multiple-alignments-12y3r9tyd","name":"UI design tip: Try to avoid using multiple alignments"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":12,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/how-to-write-documentation-that-increases-sign-ups-jtoh7h5wr","name":"How to Write Documentation That Increases Sign-ups"}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Tags","item":"https://daily.dev/tags"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"UX","item":"https://daily.dev/tags/ux"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"name":"Best of","item":"https://daily.dev/tags/ux/best-of"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"name":"June 2025"}]}]} ```
