Experience Maps – A Designer’s Framework for working in Agile teams and managing UX Debt
About the event
With evolving product features, designers and researchers find it difficult to follow the design process in every design sprint. This sometimes leads to designs delivered in haste or sub-par design artifacts, which result in UX debt. UX debt is accumulated when design teams take actions or shortcuts to expedite the delivery of a piece of functionality or a project that later needs to be refactored. It is the result of prioritizing speedy delivery of design to the development team over a perfect experience journey. Experience Maps are a great tool to practice UX in Agile as well as manage UX Debt.
