SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Review a feature and enhance it with purposeful animations, micro-interactions, and motion effects that improve usability and delight. Use when the user mentions adding animation, transitions, micro-interactions, motion design, hover effects, or making the UI feel more alive.

Core Features & Use Cases

Analyze where motion improves understanding and feedback in a UI.
Plan a comprehensive animation strategy covering entrance animations, micro-interactions, state transitions, and accessibility considerations.
Implement accessible animations that communicate state, provide non-animated alternatives for users who prefer reduced motion, and offer clear guidance.

Quick Start

Describe a starter motion plan for a primary action button, including a subtle hover state and a click feedback animation that respects reduced-motion preferences.

FAQPage Schema

How do I design UI motion for state transitions and micro-interactions?▼

Accessible animations require respecting reduced-motion preferences by providing non-animated alternatives. Implement motion strategies that communicate state changes clearly while offering fallbacks for users who prefer reduced motion.

When do I need an animation strategy for a UI feature?▼

Planning a motion strategy requires gathering context, defining performance budgets, and establishing guardrails for accessibility. This end-to-end plan ensures animations improve understanding without degrading user experience.

Can I add hover effects and click feedback while respecting reduced-motion preferences?▼

Micro-interactions like hover effects and click feedback should communicate state changes clearly. Design them with accessibility guardrails that offer non-animated alternatives for users who prefer reduced motion.

What's the best way to plan entrance animations without hurting UI performance?▼

The best way to plan entrance animations is establishing a performance budget within your motion strategy. This ensures animations enhance clarity and feedback without exceeding performance constraints or accessibility guardrails.

Why does my UI motion strategy need non-animated alternatives for state transitions?▼

Your UI motion strategy needs non-animated alternatives to meet accessibility requirements for reduced motion. Providing clear guidance and fallbacks ensures state transitions remain usable for all users.
