What was the task I had?
What did I do?
I created a sidebar that organized the navigation options logically, ensuring that similar sections were grouped together for ease of use. I incorporated clear labels and icons for visual clarity and tested its responsiveness to ensure it adapted well to different screen sizes, all while keeping the design simple and functional.
What was the result?
The result was a sidebar that provided clear, intuitive navigation across the platform. Users could easily access important sections such as games, account settings, and promotions, enhancing the overall user experience by making information easy to find without overwhelming the interface.
How did it contribute to the project?
What comes next?
The next step would be gathering user feedback through usability testing to assess how well the sidebar performs in real-world scenarios. Based on the feedback, I would refine the design to address any usability issues or make adjustments to improve the overall experience.
