Using an object model helps while designing some web pages or content.
An object in a web project is something that has structure, instances, and purpose. Instances are all the specific occurrences of an object.
An instance of the object link can be "When to choose a progressive web app".
So, as we make our user experiences more object-oriented, we also make them more intuitive.” - Sophia Prater, ooux.com.
With this practice, 4 unintuitive objects are identified. The author use the example of a zoo website and they are:
- isolated objects: they are disconnected from related objects. The penguin animals are not related to the demos and habitat from the list of all the animals. The habitat is also included on the map view of the zoo, but there are no links to the Animal or the demo on this map view either.
- broken objects: ones that are not directly manipulatable. Demos are useful to show events to the user. As someone who would like to attend the penguin demo, I want to click on an individual demo to see more details, but it is not possible.
- masked objects: styled to look the same, but are actually different. On the DisneyPlus web view, there is no way to differentiate between a series or a movie. As you want to see a movie (one shot) instead of a series (multiple shots), you have to check on the detailed view in a panel.
- shapeshifter objects: opposite of masked ones, they are styled to look different, but are actually the same. Date formatting, links, and so on should look and behave the same across the website or the experience platform. They have to be consistent.
When to use a GUI Toolkit, is it more native than the web? It means some criteria the author defines. Also what level of WCAG conformance can someone hope for?
The 4 examples are from the WAI, Deque, U.S. Web Design System et Tommy Feldt.

In this micro-book I take a historical look at interfaces to build an understanding of how they allow us to utilize information in such powerful ways that they can fundamentally change what it means to be human.
A website that embraces Brutalist Web Design is raw in its focus on content, and prioritization of the website visitor.
A website is about giving visitors content to enjoy and ways to interact with you.
Guidelines:
- Content is readable on all reasonable screens and devices.
- Only hyperlinks and buttons respond to clicks.
- Hyperlinks are underlined and buttons look like buttons.
- The back button works as expected.
- View content by scrolling.
- Decoration when needed and no unrelated content.
- Performance is a feature.
The only limitation of brutalist web design is that it is designed for content and not interactions. So this design method does not fit dashboards of real-time data for example. Am I missing something here?
I appreciate the guidelines that can be reused on every usable and accessible website or applications.
A quickstart tip:
Start with left-aligned black text on a white background, and to apply styling only to solve a specific problem
and more tips:
- Understand the semantic meaning of HTML elements.
- Learn about typography.
- Try designing for a small screen by default.
- Learn from designers about their choices and why they made them.
- When in doubt, do what Tron does: fight for the users.
The summary/details pattern is the best way to hide and show content.
