Microinteractions for User Delight
Introduction
Microinteractions may seem small but are big in impacting the overall user experience. The little bursts, small explosions, movement of icons, all of these microactions put a smile in our users.
Why it matters?
We are living in the age of user experience and users want to accomplish their goals with humanized experience - with fun. But these interactions do more than that:
- Boost engagement with the interface
- Help user navigate the interface
- Give feedback on completed actions
- Help users in their next action
- Motivate users to take action

More and more designers are incorporating animation as a functional element that enhances the user experience. Animation is no longer just for delight - it is one of the most important tools for successful interaction.
