As a UI architect, I am always wondering about the best format to display errors and notifications to users.
Which of the following examples is the best format?
- Name is required
- Name cannot be empty
- Please enter name
Answer
There is a very simple rule that I use for myself: Error messages must not display error messages, they must display a solution message.
The user does not care what is wrong and why, he simply wants the issue solved.
