Designing the User Experience for Your ThingWorx Application
ThingWorx applications are visualized as Web pages. When you design the user interface of your application, think about the following questions:
• Should you use a static or a responsive layout?
• Can the Mashups be reused for a mobile device?
• Can you build the application with existing ThingWorx widgets or do you need to use custom widgets?
• What is the minimum physical screen size for which the application must be designed? Should it be for a 5-inch mobile screen or a 10.4-inch tablet?
A consistent user interface is an important aspect of a good application design. Examples of good design practices include:
• If one list can be double-clicked for more information, then the other lists should have the same functionality.
• Ensure that the common buttons are available in the same place on every page.
• Use similar wording for text and labels.
• Use the same color scheme throughout the application.
