TECH JARGON
I noticed I used a little bit of tech jargon the video so here are some of the things I said along with their definitions.

UI / UID
User Interface / User Interface Designer: the user interface is the visual aspect of a digital product (website, app, etc.) The User Interface Designer designs those visual features. More on this in this video.

UX / UXD
User Experience / User Experience Designer: the user experience is the overall experience of a person using a product (website, app, etc.). The most important aspect of the UX is how easy a product is to use. The User Experience Designer designs those visual features. More on this in this video.

Minimum Viable Product: an early, basic version of a product (typically a computer program or piece of technology) that meets the minimum necessary requirements for use but can be adapted and improved in the future, especially after customer feedback.
