  • Graphic/Visual Design: How it looks
  • Information Architecture/Design: How it's organized
  • UI Design: How it works before I touch it
  • Interaction Design: How it works after I touch it
  • Web Design: How it works in a browser
  • UX Design: How I feel about it
  • Development: Actual coding
