This document discusses the concept of LeanUX. It begins by clarifying that LeanUX is not about doing less UX work or being lazy. Rather, it is about minimizing waste and focusing UX efforts on validating product hypotheses through prototypes and customer feedback, rather than extensive documentation. The document provides several examples to illustrate LeanUX principles like developing minimum viable products to test ideas quickly and using metrics and iterative design to continually learn and improve. Overall, the document presents LeanUX as an approach to make UX work more efficient and focused on learning what customers need through early testing and feedback.

22. “Lean
UX”
implies
that
less
UX
is
being
done.
That
couldn’t
be
further
from
the
truth,
nor
is
it
something
we
should
encourage.

the

a

that
used

Started
in

with

(Gatwick

As
they
got

they
added

more

36. Some dialogues I had with Startups
I
think
this
idea
will
change
the
world,
super
excited
about
it!
37. “So,
who
are
your
intended
users
(or
customers)
for
the
app
you
are
designing
for?”
“Everyone
I
have
just
mentioned
a
while
ago.
Furthermore,
I
believe
people
from
here
+
there
will
Find
it
attractive
too,
we
can
extend
the
modules
to
do
this
and
that
too”
“Really?!?
Basically
you
don’t
even
know
what
speci9ic
problems
you
are
trying
to
solve”
38. “How
do
you
come
about
building
this
app
in
the
Qirst
place?”
“I
Qind
it
frustrated
or
inefQicient
to
do
certain
things,
I
believe
I
can
solve
the
problem
better
through
my
idea.
I’m
the
best
user
after
all,
isn’t
it?”
“Great,
so
who
else
have
you
validated
your
ideas
with?”
“Myself,
...
and
a
couple
of
my
friends,
they
said
the
idea
is
cool!”
“Err.....
you
mean
everyone
else
behaves
exactly
like
you???”
39. “I
have
built
a
list
of
great
features
but
I
(or
my
investor)
feel
that
the
user
experience
is
not
good”
“In
what
way
you
Qind
the
user
experience
is
not
good?”
Why the UX of my
app is not good?
“The
UI
is
not
sleek
enough,
I
need
to
make
it
more
beautiful
and
attractive
-
perhaps
by
adding
a
couple
of
nice
icons
here
and
there...”
“I
see,
your
de<inition
of
good
user
experience
=
better
user
interface,
no
wonder
the
user
experience
of
your
app
sucks...”
43. How
Lean
UX
may
work
well?
1. You are composed of small, goal-driven, cross-functional teams
2. Features begin as hypotheses to be tested before heavy investment
3. A feature starts as a minimum valuable feature, and then iterates
4. Proof carries more weight than opinion
5. The team talks to real customers on a regular basis, including in-person
How
Lean
UX
may
not
work
well?
1. If your stakeholders requires formality to justify decisions
2. If you need to deal with legacy systems and require regular updates
44. If my target audience is EVERYONE,
then I’m designing for NO ONE!
51. Leave a good impression to your customers,
Build the product as if it is for your friends
52. Put
yourself
in
customers’
shoes
and
ask
the
vital
quesHon
“When is the last time you feel good about using an app as a
user, remember it and do the same to your customers”
53. Lean UX is just UX.
But UX isn't always Lean UX.
