Micro-Interactions: The Joyful Touches That Enhance Your Software Experience!
Never forget that software is about humans
At the beginning of 2025, I had the pleasure of collaborating with the Design Journal by Octet. They proposed some topics to write about, and I chose micro-interactions.
My article’s title would have been, How To Leverage Micro Interactions In Information Architecture?
As a technical writer, I was unfamiliar with that topic, so I took the opportunity to learn more and even help the design journal readers.
It was a 2,532-word journey that I enjoyed and led me to publish How To Leverage Micro Interactions In Information Architecture?
The key lesson I gained is how profound human aspects are in software. This is foundational for every role in the IT industry, particularly for engineers who neglect the user experience. So, why not share a recap on Medium?
Here we are! Enjoy!
What are micro-interactions?
Users interact with digital products as if they were story heroes, creating the story while using websites, mobile apps, or software to achieve goals. Each action triggers the next step, across successes and failures.
