Modern UI Trends That Are Worth Your Time

Trends come and go, but a few patterns earn their place because they make products easier to use.

Worth adopting

Generous spacing, restrained motion, and clear focus states. Dark mode done properly, with real contrast ratios rather than grey-on-grey.

Worth skipping

Decorative animation that delays interaction, and trendy fonts that hurt legibility. If a choice does not help the user navigate, it is decoration.
