Editing WoW:User interface (section)

The User Interface, or UI, is a part of a game or program that the user interacts with. The term generally refers specifically to the buttons, windows, and other controls a player sees and uses.

In many games, the developers make allowances for players to craft their own unique look-and-feel for their own UI. The player can [[\Mod|modify ("mod")]] just their own client application, or one can upload one's UI mod to one of the many [[fansites]] that host file transfers. Players can also download mods by peers and use those UI mods with their client. In World of Warcraft, these mods are called [[AddOn]]s.

By swapping out UI mods, the entire gaming community has the opportunity to find a UI that works for their playing style.
