What I learned
Initially, I focused more on the aesthetics before addressing the data and hierarchy. It is important to consider removing any elements that do not provide useful information, such as decorations. By using the data and insights collected through research, I was able to create a dashboard that displays actionable and relevant information. After multiple rounds of feedback, iteration, and usability testing, I am pleased with how my project has turned out.
