Chapter 10: Forms and Applications
Technologies that Support Interaction
This section outlines the importance of web interaction between pages for users. For this interaction to be successful, the interface needs to guide users through tasks and provide feedback to prevent errors.
Designing Web Applications
This section talks about the interface design of apps; they need to remain restrained and simple so it remains uncluttered and easy for users to navigate.
The Design Process
Designing web applications needs multiple models, testing, and refinement before being ready for users; wireframes and prototypes are beneficial in this process.
My Response
The section on designing web applications was helpful for me in the aspect of remembering that sometimes less is more. As I am currently working on my portfolio, it was a good perspective reminder to keep things simple and easy to navigate. I do not need to add too much and overdo it making my pages seem cluttered and hard to understand.
