User Flow

Wire Frames

During the UX design process for the Cadiant™ tablet app, low-fidelity wireframes were created as a blueprint. These wireframes outline the app's structure and flow without emphasizing design details. They enable quick iteration and feedback before investing in high-fidelity design, saving time and resources.

Component Library

To ensure consistency and efficiency in the design process for the Cadiant™ tablet application, a UI component library was developed. This library serves as a centralized repository of pre-designed and reusable interface elements, such as buttons, input fields, and navigation components. By utilizing the component library, the design team can quickly assemble screens, maintain visual consistency, and expedite the development process.
