Force Bridge, is a platform that enables the transfer of whitelisted tokens between the Ethereum and Nervos chains. Force Bridge aims to provide users with a seamless and intuitive experience when transferring tokens across chains. With an emphasis on simplicity and ease of use, Force Bridge streamlines the process of interacting with the Force Bridge smart contracts, making cross-chain token transfers accessible to users of all levels of technical expertise. For the redesign, I performed a heuristic analysis of the current interface, gather insights, and created personas, user flows, and components, to create high-fidelity designs to guide the design and development process.
The Ethereum Force Bridge is a crucial open-source project that enables the transfer of whitelisted tokens between the Ethereum and Nervos ecosystems. This allows for increased interoperability and token liquidity, which is essential for the growth and sustainability of decentralized applications (dApps) and the blockchain industry as a whole. However, the current interface for the Force Bridge may not be the most user-friendly, which could deter some users from utilizing its capabilities.
As such, the objective of this project is to redesign the current Force Bridge interface for usability issues as shown below to create a more intuitive and streamlined user experience
The final design should retain essential elements of the previous design while incorporating modern design principles to make it more user-centric.
The design approach for the Ethereum Force Bridge interface involved a user-centered design process that focused on understanding the goals for the project, potential user needs based on user patterns & behaviors.
My first step in delivering the project was to conduct a thorough analysis of the existing Ethereum Force Bridge interface. This involved reviewing the interface's usability, functionality, and visual design. I also looked at user feedback and complaints about general Token swap interfaces to identify pain points and areas for improvement.
Based on the insights gathered from the analysis, we created personas and user flows to guide the design process. I used these personas to design a user-centered interface that met the needs of the target users. I also used user patterns and common user behaviors to design a simplified and intuitive interface.
I identified potential usability issues and areas for improvement on the various design improvement I made and then iterated on the designs, making changes based on feedback received after brief tests was conducted.
By taking a user-centric approach and incorporating modern design principles, the redesigned Force Bridge interface was more intuitive and easier to use, resulting in increased user engagement and adoption. For this project, I understood that project specifications can always change and as a designer, I should be prepared to adapt accordingly. I was also able to explore and learn about the crypto space.
