Confirmations
Ask users to confirm destructive or important actions like deletions or permanent changes.
Quick Forms
Collect focused input without navigating away from the current page, like adding a new item.
Critical Information
Display important messages, warnings, or alerts that demand immediate user attention.
Multi-Step Workflows
Guide users through short, focused processes that require multiple steps or decisions.
When not to use
- For non-essential information that doesn't require interrupting the user's workflow—use a notification or tooltip instead
- For complex, multi-page forms—use a dedicated page or wizard interface for better usability
- When users need to reference information while filling a form—use an inline expandable section or side panel
- For frequent actions that don't need confirmation—allow direct action with an undo option
