Instructions
- Read the design language reference:
DESIGN-LANGUAGE.mdsections on Microcopy Tone Guide and UX Writing
- Apply the voice principles:
Tone Rules
- Casual but polite: Friendly, not robotic. Like talking to a helpful friend.
- Active voice: "We saved your changes" not "Your changes have been saved"
- Positive framing: "Free shipping on orders over $30" not "Orders under $30 have shipping fees"
- Plain language: "Send money" not "Initiate transfer"
- Concise: Every word must earn its place
Copy Patterns by Context
Button Labels (CTA)
Format: [Action verb] + [Object] (optional)
Good: "Place order", "Get started", "Save changes", "Try again"
Bad: "Submit", "OK", "Click here", "Proceed to next step"
- One primary CTA per screen
- Label must clearly describe what happens next
- Max 3 words for primary CTA
Empty States
Format: [Friendly observation] + [Suggested action]
Good: "No activity yet. Create your first project to get started."
Bad: "No data found."
- Always suggest a next action
- Use a relevant icon (32px, text-text-tertiary)
- Tone: encouraging, not blaming
Error Messages
Format: [What happened] + [What to do]
Good: "Couldn't load the data. Please try again."
Bad: "Error 500: Internal Server Error"
- Never show technical errors to users
- Blame the system, not the user
- Always provide a recovery action
Toast Notifications
Format: [Confirmation of what happened]
Good: "Saved!", "Changes applied", "Item deleted · Undo"
Bad: "Operation completed successfully"
- Max 2 lines
- Include "Undo" link for reversible destructive actions
- Info toasts: 3 seconds. Action toasts: 5 seconds.
Form Labels & Helpers
Label: Noun phrase ("Email address", "Password")
Placeholder: Example or hint ("[email protected]")
Helper: Format guidance ("Must be at least 8 characters")
Error: Specific issue ("This email is already registered")
Confirmation Dialogs
Title: [Question about the action]
Body: [Consequence explanation]
Primary: [Action verb] ("Delete", "Confirm")
Secondary: "Close" (not "Cancel" — avoids confusion)
- Generate copy for the requested context, providing:
- Primary copy (what to display)
- Variants (if context varies)
- Do's and Don'ts for the specific context
