Writing up some best-practice patterns for form controls, and I've assembled this list of native HTML controls that should never be used (because they're not universally supported, and/or their native UI has accessibility problems):
Yea I pretty much hate every date/calender input out there, and most of the color input tools too.
Interestingly, I think most color choosing tools and date choosing tools fail for the same reason: a “nearly infinite” set of possible choices.
Consider a date tool. Do you need to enter a date for next week for an appointment? Or a date/time in a month for a holiday trip, but you have to schedule around two other people.
Or, enter your birthday.
Or, find that event that was ten years ago, but it might have been 9 or 11 years, and you’re in California where we don’t have seasons so you can’t remember time of year…
That’s four different task requirements, and a simple all purpose tool is not an ideal solution.
But “simple all purpose” is what most UIs for date/time are.
💜 Remix / Tailwind Infinite Scroll Masonry Grid 💜 So excited to have gotten this so smooth and beautiful. It might be my favorite component thus far. It is flawless from mobile to ultraHD, from 300px to 4000px!
I've read that #WhatsApp wants to interoperate with other #messenger applications, to align with #DigitalMarketsAct. My problem with their #UX approach is that it's only planned as a third-party tab, with no promise of a setting that would place all the chats on the single page.
I realize they have security reservations, but I smell a dark pattern here: only do I message my people on WhatsApp from Matrix, they'd have to change tabs, making a chat with me stick like a sore thumb - or not stick at all.
Hot bottom-line: hiding behind a tab is no different than cutting off #interoperability altogether. Multi-messenger chats should become a first-party feature in synchronous software, to comply with #DMA. Targeted apps that don't care about such regulation have no future.
Nous sommes une #SCOP de conception et développement de sites web à #Grenoble, et nous recherchons actuellement un⋅e webdesigneur⋅euse UI/UX à temps plein, s'occupant également d'une partie importante de la communication externe de Webu.
One of the gripes of some point and click interfaces are hunting for tiny things in corners of scenes -- I'm actively trying to avoid it in my game, but just in case any hotspots may be hard to find, I added some functionality to toggle visibility here by pressing the "H" key! :)
I really hate UI like this. The only way to figure it out is by randomly fucking around tap tap tip tap this and that. I had no idea the only way to bring the tabs is by tapping the Threads logo in which no way looks like a button.
Designers for the love of god stop doing this LOL. My gaaaaaadah.
When logging into a website, what is the benefit of asking for email, making me hit submit, and then asking me for my password? Why not accept both at once? #UX#UI#UIUX
And what do you think makes onboarding flows useful, and not something you just skip past? (Mainly ones that are interactive, not ones where they just tell you information)
As more companies work to integrate the capabilities of powerful generative AI language and vision models into new and existing software, high-level interaction...
I have a question for my #WebDev bubble. We do secret santa at work and I got a coworker that works in frontend, just discovered his love for modern #CSS and likes books for learning.
So I'm looking for a good CSS book that covers not only the basics but modern CSS and how it all works. It hasn't to cover "everything" but can also be pretty specific.
Any ideas? If I look for modern CSS books I just find stuft that seems modern by 2010-2015 standards. I would prefer a book from this year as CSS is evolving extremely fast the last two years.
The first part (Chapter 1) contains basic information and introduces enough TECO commands to allow the novice TECO user to begin creating and editing text files after only a few hours of instruction.
I've decided to take the old #Macintosh HIGs and merge them into one large collection of topics while modernizing them in the process.
The original #HIG would give actual examples with usable metrics and mention possible exceptions to the rule. The incredible level of detail gave developers the guidance to create delightful UI users have come to expect from their #Mac.
To kick off this work, here is my first topic. Layout Guidelines.
In this post: #microsoft#PowerBi as seen through the #ios#MSTeams app. Instead of loading or redirecting to the dedicated PowerBi app for iOS, it loads the web app. And not one optimized for mobile, either: that looks like the desktop web app. And thanks, @microsoft ! #uiux#accessibility
High-contrast visual themes are supported by the operating system and distributed with it, by default. Users can turn them on and off at need. Microsoft's own software should comply.
CozyFish UI - Gitlab → voici la page Gitlab de mes fichiers custom CSS et thèmes pour Firefish :chick_aww:
Les 2 ont été créés pour aller ensemble mais le custom CSS fonctionne normalement très bien avec les autres thèmes par défaut de Firefish (j'utilise les variables de couleurs dans le css)
Vous pouvez me conseiller, me réprimander parceque j'ai mal fait la page gitlab, contribuer (en rendant le code plus propre ou en ajoutant des fonctionnalités), ou partager si le projet vous plaiiit :boost_requested:
