The User-centered design (UCD) process outlines the phases throughout a design and development life-cycle all while focusing on gaining a deep understanding of who will be using the product.

It’s important to note that the UCD process does not specify exact methods for each phase. class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1062" src="http://moha.studio/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/UCD.jpeg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />
- Specify the context of use: Identify the people who will use the product, what they will use it for, and under what conditions they will use it.
- Specify requirements: Identify any business requirements or user goals that must be met for the product to be successful.
- Create design solutions: This part of the process may be done in stages, building from a rough concept to a complete design.
- Evaluate designs: Evaluation - ideally through usability testing with actual users - is as integral as quality testing is to good software development.
