BUT WHAT IS IT REALLY LIKE TO BE A UX DEVELOPER?
Some people believe that the UX field is not something that is important. Some of their reasons are that, first, UX design partially depends on the user's emotion at the time, their background and personality, and this is something you cannot control. Therefore, creating something that appeals to most is impossible (according to them).
​
UX also depends on the context in which an app, website, or else, is used, here again, something out of the control of the developer.
​
This is up for discussion, and people have different opinions. So instead of having a debate, we will discuss the pros and cons of being a UX developer.
Not everyone agrees
