UX Research Guide
Wynde is a remote user research platform for product teams.
I designed a UX/UI concept for Wynde’s UX research guide: IA, navigation, typography, content components, and the visual style for illustration.
What was actually done
Work ran in one week sprint.
Context
The team had content and wanted a modern, readable guide that could scale to many chapters.
Constraints
A docs-like chapter page with a persistent sidebar and a clear reading hierarchy.
Navigation
On large guides, users get lost quickly. Even good typography won’t help if readers can’t answer: “Where am I?” and “What’s next?”
Content navigation
Persistent left sidebar on the desktop.
Sidebar keeps the guide structure visible and makes chapter switching instant.
Persistent menu button opens TOC drawer on mobile.
Mobile TOC drawer mirrors desktop structure so users don’t relearn navigation.
On-page navigation
In-page anchors for fast jumps inside long chapters.
Anchors support the ''I need an answer'' mode without breaking reading flow.
Utility menu
Quick access to bookmarks / auth / links
A lightweight utility menu for actions that don’t belong inside the content TOC.
Search flow
When the guide grows, users won’t browse chapters—they’ll search for a term and jump straight into the right section.
Search flow from empty state to results to the target chapter.
