Role of HTML in UI UX Design

HTML plays a crucial role in improving the overall quality of an interface’s design. Even though knowledge of coding is not a necessity to learn UI UX design, an understanding of HTML and CSS can be beneficial and offer additional insights into the UX design process. As all web pages are fundamentally designed using HTML, knowledge can help UI UX designers improve communication with developers, enable effective prototyping, and make informed design decisions.

Knowledge of HTML elements can also help make a website more accessible and easy to navigate. UI UX designers can benefit greatly from having a working knowledge of HTML to enhance the usability and experience of their products.
