01 Design Principal

Originally, another UI designer was responsible for the interface design, but their work did not fully capture the "social innovation" feel that the project initiator was aiming for. As a result, I was appointed to take over the UI and UX design moving forward. After multiple rounds of discussions and meetings, I was able to deliver the desired solution.

02 Design Process

2.1 Mind Map

We used a mind map to define the product’s feature structure and page data fields, setting the foundation for workflow diagrams and prototypes.

2.2 Workflow

Research shows users prefer completing forms on a website. We designed a workflow that collects only basic details initially, complying with the WeChat System Privacy Policy and ensuring convenience.

2.3 Prototypes

Prototyping began with paper sketches of key components, followed by low-fidelity wireframes to map page logic and streamline the process.

2.4 Component Library

A component library was created to ensure design consistency and simplify future updates.

2.5 Heatmap Analysis with AI

AI-driven heatmaps tested main page usability, highlighting user behavior and guiding interface refinements.

03 Design Work

Following the WCAG web accessibility AAA standards, I used these colors, font size, and line high.
