How to Use Micro-interactions?
1. Trigger: The triggers are the sorted program, which are the automatically executed or fired when some events(insert, delete, and update) occur.
- In a user-initiated trigger, the user has to initiate an action.
- In a system-initiated trigger, software detects certain qualifications are being met and initiates an action.
2. Rule: A rule determines how a micro-interaction responds to a trigger and defines what happens during the interaction.
3. Feedback: The message sent by a receiver back to the source is called feedback. The feedback is important in two way communication.
- it makes communication meaningful.
- It is the end results of an idea and makes communication a continuous process.
- It is the help to achieve the goal of the communication.
- It is the also help to problem solving and decision making.
Example of Micro instructions preloads, chatbots, gamified animations, and celebratory gifts.
4. Loops and Modes: The loop and modes determine the meta-rules of the micro interaction.
Benefits of Microinteractions in Web Designing
Micro-interactions are small moments where the user and design interact. When they are well designed, micro-interaction enhances the user’s experience with the design. When they are poorly designed, they damage the experience.
The micro-interactions are small, suitable animations or feedback that occur in an app or website. They give a better user experience by providing visual cues and responsiveness. For example, a button changing color when clicked is a micro-interaction.
