Pagination
Navigate through multiple pages of content
What it solves
Pagination divides large content collections into manageable chunks or pages. Users navigate through data sets, search results, or product listings without getting overwhelmed by too much information at once. Pagination works well, but consider alternatives like infinite scroll or "Load More" buttons for certain content types. Your choice between pagination and infinite scroll depends on content nature, user behavior, and interface goals.
When to use
Use pagination when content needs structured, progressive loading for smoother user experience and better performance. Pagination helps users navigate large information sets without getting overwhelmed. Common scenarios include:
- Content lists need browsing (search results, blog archives, product listings)
- Page performance improves by loading smaller content segments
- User clarity increases when large data sets become easier to navigate
- Sequential content requires navigation (multi-page tutorials or articles)
