Abstract

In the evolving landscape of software development, Human-Centric Software Engineering (HCSE) is emerging as a pivotal paradigm, prioritizing human needs and experiences at the core of software engineering processes. This research delves into the fundamental principles of HCSE, its implications on software quality, and the enhanced user satisfaction it promises. Through comprehensive surveys, case study analyses, and user feedback sessions, this study reaffirms the increasing significance of HCSE in modern software development. Despite its evident benefits, the research also sheds light on the organizational barriers hindering its broad adoption. As software systems continue to intertwine with our daily lives, the research underscores the imperative shift from mere functionality to creating holistic, human-centered software experiences.
