Top User Interface Kits that Web Designers Must Use when Designing Websites

When you design a website, it goes without saying that the user interface plays a massive role. If the user interface is intensely complicated, visitors are likely to steer clear of your website and look elsewhere, thus giving your competitors an upper hand over the situation. Usually, a web designer gets so engrossed in selecting the perfect colour scheme and typography for a website that they end up neglecting one of the most important aspects of web designing – the user interface. However, there is a wide range of user interface kits that are available at a web designer’s disposal whether you work for a company specialising in website design New York or simply work as a freelancer. Given below are some simple, accessible and free tools for designing just the right user interface for your websites.

1.)   Uikit:

A self explanatory name, this user interface kit is extremely lightweight and produces results that are stunning and effective at the very same time. It boasts of a modular framework and is known for speeding up the websites load time while still providing the best user experience in terms of the user interface. This kit consists of nifty tools that can enhance the appearance of a website including buttons, navigation bars, modals and the likes. Besides, this kit also lays the foundation for a strong layout with its superior quality grid system. With this kit, you get access to a plethora of themes that have already been created but can be completely customized as per your liking or the clients’ demands. You can also use the theme editor provided by jQuery to make your desired customization.
