Lean-UX | Glossary

 

Definition

Lean User Experience (Lean UX) design facilitates a greater level of collaboration with the entire team working on a project. By design, it extends the traditional UX role beyond merely just executing design elements and anticipates user interaction with a system. It is an incredibly useful prospect where the Agile development method is applied, since it supports a far more comprehensive view of the existence of a feature, its’ functionality and benefits. It also delivers quick feedback that can be used to make quick decisions.
