Affordance
Affordance
Affordances are properties or features of an object that communicate to users that they can interact with something.
The term “affordances” was first introduced by American psychologist James J. Gibson and later redefined and popularized by Don Norman in his book, The Design of Everyday Things.
Affordances are a crucial tactic to helping your user know how and when to interact with something, whether it’s a border around a button or a line under text.
