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
