What do a UI designer do?

A UI Designer is one who designs the looks of a webpage or an app before it is developed/programed by a web designer, He designs eg A login page, a product landing page or a homepage, etc. It is related to Graphic designing. Most UI designers are also graphic designers.

I am a UI/Graphic Designer and a Web Developer. A UI design looks like my designs below, think of them that way;

Nice sharing. Did you make a lot of money freelancing as UI designer?

thank you for your comment.

Not a lot of money for now as I begun my journey as a UI designer and a web developer this year. I hope to have more clients to work for.

Although I know a good friend who started his journey as a UI designer since 2017, he has made a lot of money working as a UI designer.
