Core UX Laws & Implementation
1. Spatial & Interaction Accuracy (Fitts's Law)
- The Principle: Target acquisition time depends on size and distance.
- Implementation: * Interactive elements must have a minimum hit area of 44x44px.
- The Hit-Area Trick: If a button looks small visually, expand its clickable area using
::beforepseudo-elements with invisible padding. - Coyote Time: For complex drag-and-drops or high-speed interactions, allow a "forgiveness window" of ~100ms after the cursor leaves a target.
- The Hit-Area Trick: If a button looks small visually, expand its clickable area using
2. Decision Architecture (Hick's Law & Choice Overload)
- The Principle: Decision time increases with the number and complexity of choices.
- Implementation: * Progressive Disclosure: Hide advanced settings behind "Advanced" toggles.
- Curated Defaults: Group options into clusters of no more than 5–7.
- Side-by-Side Comparison: Use clear horizontal layouts for pricing/plans to prevent choice paralysis.
