Модальные окна — пожалуй, самый спорный элемент любого интерфейса. Они врываются в процесс, требуют внимания и вынуждают принимать решение прямо сейчас. Поэтому хорошая «модалка» — это не про красивый внешний вид, а про уместность. Про то, чтобы вмешаться в нужный момент и не навредить.Но чтобы понять, где эта грань, стоит сначала разобраться: а что вообще происходит, когда модальное окно появляется на экране?

I realized something was genuinely wrong with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie about 30 minutes in: I hadn't laughed even once.
