People often confuse UX and UI, or will assume that they are the same thing. While they are very similar, and work together, they are two seperate ideas.
UI focuses on presentation, while UX does not.
This is UX's domain, UI takes a back seat here.
UI is a part of UX, without each other, they fall apart.
