Walk through the process of designing for hierarchy and learn its main challenges.
Case study: Category hierarchy
- Since choosing categories while filtering the content out can be complex and monotonous, it’s crucial to provide categories and subcategories in a visually appealing way.
- Tornike Kurdadze, Flutter Engineer at Netguru, found a solution for the eCommerce app with multi-levels (about 5 of categories)
- During testing and research, the author found that when creating hierarchical categories, there are several things to keep in mind:
-
- Users should be able to see the path of his/her current selection
- Users should be able to return to the parent or any descendant category easily
- Child categories should be different from the parent one
- Users should not have to scroll a lot
- Users should be able to search with keywords
- The overall interface should be smooth and intuitive
