Abstract [en]
In modern development of software, there is an expanding focus on creating user-friendly as well as engaging web applications. Still, despite the technical ability of full stack developers, therein remains a hole in incorporating design principles of usability and user experience (UX) into the process of development. This research examines the impact, problems, and best practices related to the integrating usability and UX design into full stack development. Applying an approach of mixed-methods, this study inspects the feasibility of integrating design principles of user-centric into full stack development, determines practical approaches for bridging the gap amongst technical proficiency as well as user-centric design, and investigates the key problems faced by full stack developers in performing usability and UX design principles. The verdict contributes to the betterment of knowledge in equally technical and user-centered countenances of web application development, leading to the creation of more effective and user-friendly digital solutions.
