UI UX introduction
User interface design is the process of maximizing usability, user experience, and satisfaction when interacting with a product through its interface. This involves understanding user behavior and needs to design interfaces that allow users to accomplish goals simply and efficiently. User experience design takes this a step further by addressing all aspects of a product as perceived by users. Some key principles of good UI design include clarity, feedback, consistency, following established patterns, visual hierarchy through typography, white space and color use. Common UI patterns include things like autocomplete, cards, and navigation menus.
ModernAqua
Modern Aqua is a theme for SugarCRM 6.1 that is designed like Mac apps with modules, actions, and last viewed items located on the left side for wide screens. It features a polished subpanel with high contrast design and big buttons for touch, along with a new bottom toolbar and translucent head up display similar to modern desktop apps. The theme uses oxygen icons from the KDE Project and can be installed by downloading or uploading to Sugar and selecting ModernAqua from the theme chooser in user preferences.

Introduction to user-centric design process
This document provides an overview of the user-centric design process. It discusses three key steps: research to identify users and tasks, testing and measuring usability through observations and prototyping, and prototyping different designs for user testing before coding. The research step involves understanding user goals rather than just demographics. Testing involves usability metrics and fixing issues found. Prototyping allows exploring designs quickly before building full products. Principles of usability like consistency, archetypes and gestalt are also covered. The overall message is that design should focus on users, not just visuals or technology.
