What Are Micro-Interactions?

Micro-interactions are small, functional animations or changes that respond to user actions. They add subtle layers of interactivity to your site, enhancing engagement and usability.

Examples include a button lighting up on hover or a form field validating input in real-time.

Why Micro-Interactions Are Important

  • Provide instant feedback for user actions.

  • Guide behavior and improve clarity.

  • Add personality to the user experience.

Micro-interactions transform mundane tasks into delightful experiences.

How to Use Micro-Interactions Effectively

  1. Keep animations short and purposeful.

  2. Use them to highlight actions like clicks or transitions.

  3. Ensure consistency in style and timing.

When used correctly, micro-interactions can elevate your website’s appeal.

"Details are not the details. They make the design." — Charles Eames

Small, thoughtful touches can turn a good website into an exceptional one.
