Voice User Interfaces
Nice PickDevelopers should learn VUIs to build applications for voice-first devices like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple Siri, which are increasingly popular in smart homes, automotive interfaces, and customer service automation
Pros
- +This skill is essential for creating accessible software that caters to users with disabilities or those in hands-busy environments, such as driving or cooking
- +Related to: speech-recognition, natural-language-processing
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Graphical User Interface
Developers should learn GUI concepts and implementation when creating desktop applications, mobile apps, web applications with rich interfaces, or any software requiring user-friendly interaction
Pros
- +It's essential for building applications that target non-technical users, as GUIs improve usability, reduce learning curves, and enhance productivity through visual feedback and direct manipulation
- +Related to: user-interface-design, frontend-development
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Voice User Interfaces if: You want this skill is essential for creating accessible software that caters to users with disabilities or those in hands-busy environments, such as driving or cooking and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Graphical User Interface if: You prioritize it's essential for building applications that target non-technical users, as guis improve usability, reduce learning curves, and enhance productivity through visual feedback and direct manipulation over what Voice User Interfaces offers.
