As the component of the product in direct constant communication with the end customer, the user interface must be responsive, intuitive and robust, first and foremost.
Creating a dynamic GUI that engages the consumer and makes it easy for them to navigate, presenting all relevant, but not too much information on-screen, is one goal of good user interface design.
