What is the difference between a content viewer and a user experience?

A content viewer is a tool for checking content. A user experience is the final product for a user. These two things must be built separately. They have different goals and different timelines.

The rule

A content viewer is a tool for checking content.

A user experience is the final product for a user. These two things must be built separately. They have different goals and different timelines.

A content viewer helps a developer check if content is correct. It is a simple tool. It does not need fancy design. A user experience is the final product a user sees. It includes design, sound, and how a user interacts with it. These two things are not the same. They should be built at different times. A developer must ask if unsure.

A developer creates a simple tool to check if all images load correctly. This is a content viewer. A designer then adds animations, special fonts, and interactive elements for the final product. This is the user experience. The developer should not add design elements to the content viewer.
