Interaction Design
Create engaging, intuitive interactions through motion, feedback, and thoughtful state transitions that enhance usability and delight users.
When to Use This Skill
- Adding microinteractions to enhance user feedback
- Implementing smooth page and component transitions
- Designing loading states and skeleton screens
- Creating gesture-based interactions
- Building notification and toast systems
- Implementing drag-and-drop interfaces
- Adding scroll-triggered animations
- Designing hover and focus states
Core Principles
1. Purposeful Motion
Motion should communicate, not decorate:
- Feedback: Confirm user actions occurred
- Orientation: Show where elements come from/go to
- Focus: Direct attention to important changes
- Continuity: Maintain context during transitions
2. Timing Guidelines
| Duration | Use Case | |
|---|---|---|
| 100-150ms | Micro-feedback (hovers, clicks) | |
| 200-300ms | Small transitions (toggles, dropdowns) | |
| 300-500ms | Medium transitions (modals, page changes) | |
| 500ms+ | Complex choreographed animations |
3. Easing Functions
Quick Start: Button Microinteraction
Interaction Patterns
1. Loading States
Skeleton Screens: Preserve layout while loading
Progress Indicators: Show determinate progress
2. State Transitions

Best Practices
- Performance First: Use
transformandopacityfor smooth 60fps - Reduce Motion Support: Always respect
prefers-reduced-motion - Consistent Timing: Use a timing scale across the app
- Natural Physics: Prefer spring animations over linear
- Interruptible: Allow users to cancel long animations
- Progressive Enhancement: Work without JS animations
- Test on Devices: Performance varies significantly
Common Issues
- Janky Animations: Avoid animating
width,height,top,left - Over-animation: Too much motion causes fatigue
- Blocking Interactions: Never prevent user input during animations
- Memory Leaks: Clean up animation listeners on unmount
- Flash of Content: Use
will-changesparingly for optimization
