User experience (UX) and user interface (UI) are two fairly similar realms oftentimes. The terms are sometimes used interchangeably or incorrectly, so you have to parse out what people really mean.
UI design revolves are the physical layout. The buttons, the assets, the graphic design. The visual elements and the actual interface itself and its key components.
UX is about the user’s experience as a whole with the product. They consider every possible interaction a user might have associated with the product. A large part of that is how fusterated a website might make them, which explains the overlap with UI. However, it also encompasses concerns such as: how are users discovering the product? How many pages are they navigating through to find the most common information they need one the website? How does the user feel in this process? What else could make the user happier?
At the most basic level, UI is the indivual pieces and parts that serve UX’s goals of creating a good user experience with the product.
