sequenceux:

  1. Interfaces exist to enable interaction

  9. Appearance follows behaviour (aka form follows function)
  10. Consistency matters
  11. Strong visual hierarchies work best
  12. Smart organisation reduces cognitive load
  13. Highlight, don’t determine, with colour
  14. Progressive disclosure
  15. Help people inline
  16. Design for the crucial zero state
