What is RUX Challenge?
RUX (Rapid User Experience) challenge uses the same format as our famous LUX Challenge, except it is not "Live" at an event. The RUX Challenge Series provides you with an opportunity to show digital leaders from some of the largest companies in the world just how good your concept and user experience (UI/UX) design skills are.
RUX (Rapid User Experience) challenges are fast, fun, and have more chances for you to capture prize money!
Note: You do not need to have RUX challenge experience to join this challenge - Just jump in and give it a try! Make sure to follow the challenge details, and ask questions in the challenge forum.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION
- This is an exploratory/concept design challenge. We are looking for your ideas
- Think of best practice for responsive web (we need the design in both Web/Desktop and Mobile)
- The design should be clean and professional. Think about a corporate/employee end-user using this application every day
- Needs the WOW factor! Show us a creative design that works within our Salesforce (SFDC) Design Guidelines boundaries! The design should be creative, able to present a good way to view the data, so we can understand the information easier, and have sharp graphics. Our guiding principle is to use out of box Salesforce Financial Service Cloud (FSC) functionalities and minimum customization
- Easy to understand user flow
- No need to design a logo for this application. You can use a dummy logo or a placeholder. The real logo will be replaced later during final fixes
