  • Navigation Components: Menus, breadcrumbs, search bars
  • Informational Components: Tooltips, icons, progress bars
  • Containers: Cards, accordions, modal windows

How to use UI Elements

Implement elements by following established design patterns, maintaining consistency across the interface, ensuring accessibility, and considering user expectations. Each element should serve a clear purpose and follow platform conventions.

Best Practices for UI Elements

Design elements with clear affordances, provide appropriate feedback, maintain visual hierarchy, and ensure responsive behavior. Focus on creating intuitive, consistent experiences that guide users through their tasks.
