Craveen is a prototype application designed using Adobe XD that allows users to share their culinary experiences through the food they eat.

Whether it’s food cooked at home or enjoyed in cafes and restaurants, Craveen brings people together by allowing them to socialize and explore good food through friends' posts and reviews. The app aims to cater to both casual food enthusiasts and culinary explorers, making it an essential tool for anyone passionate about food and social interaction. The creation of Craveen involved extensive user research, design iterations, and user testing to ensure a seamless user experience. The development process included several key stages: 1. User Research and Planning: Initial research was conducted to understand the needs and behaviors of potential users. This involved interviews and surveys with food enthusiasts and social media users. 2. Designing High-Fidelity Prototypes: Using Adobe XD, high-fidelity prototypes of Craveen were created. These prototypes included key pages such as Signing Up and Logging In, Uploading Content, Writing a Story, and Sharing Stories with Friends. Each page was meticulously designed to ensure an intuitive and engaging user interface. 3. User Testing: The high-fidelity prototypes were tested with real users through a series of planned testing sessions and participant interviews. Feedback from these sessions was crucial in refining the design and functionality of the app. Users were tasked with various activities, such as signing up, uploading content, and sharing stories, to test the app's usability and discoverability. 4. Iterative Improvements: Based on user feedback, iterative improvements were made to the design. This ensured that Craveen met user expectations and provided a smooth and enjoyable user experience.

The creation of Craveen was a user experience design endeavor that began with understanding users' needs through detailed research and interviews.

The high-fidelity prototypes created in Adobe XD allowed for realistic simulations of the user experience, focusing on intuitive and engaging interfaces. User testing was essential, involving real users to test tasks such as signing up, uploading content, and sharing stories. This feedback-driven approach ensured that the final product was user-friendly and met expectations. We constantly improved Craveen based on what users told us, making changes to make it better and better. The result is an application that is not only functional but also delightful to use, showcasing how thorough research, prototyping, and iterative testing can create a seamless and enjoyable user experience.
