Notifications & Toasts

Overview

Feedback tells users their action worked (or didn't). Pick the right channel for the message's importance and persistence: toasts for transient confirmations, inline alerts for contextual or blocking info, and a notification center for a history of async events. Overusing toasts trains users to ignore them.

When to use

• Confirming an action (saved, deleted, copied).
• Surfacing a recoverable error or important context.
• Async/background events users should be able to review later.
