Introduction: Why UI/UX Is the Game-Changer in 2025
In 2025, UI/UX design isn't just about making things "look good"—it's about creating digital experiences that are intuitive, emotional, and AI-smart. With user expectations at an all-time high and tech evolving rapidly, brands that ignore UX are falling behind. According to recent studies, 88% of users are less likely to return to a site after a poor user experience—making UX the silent growth engine of successful digital products.
