What is Microinteraction?

They are the tiniest details (usually animated) that facilitate interactions between the user and a piece of software.
They can make the user experience more fun, engaging, efficient, and humane.
But, let's understand some real world examples

What is the structure of Microinteractions?
What is the structure of Microinteractions?
Triggers the moment the microinteraction begins (by user or system).

by Adam Plouff
Rules determine what happens once a microinteraction is triggered.
Feedback lets the user know what’s happening.
Anything a user sees, hears, or feels while a microinteraction is happening.
Two major types of feedback: visual, audio.

Loops and Modes determine how long the microinteraction lasts and what happens over time.
What is microinteraction?
Why is it worth the effort?
What is it made of?
So...how do we code it?
Let's dive in!
