| > 3. Can you tell me more about this "intrusive ad"? Probably, I didn't understand it correctly. Yepp. https://shuffle.dev/components/all/all/about-us The second item is some static "house ad" for Alternatives. On this page, it stands out well, and I can tell it's not actually part of the search results. The annoying animation of course means it's distracting in an otherwise quiet page, but whatever. The problem is I started clicking around on https://shuffle.dev/components/all/all/dashboard-forms, where all the real search results are also dark themed, and there it's just confusing and irrelevant. Had it been just a banner, it would have been more visually obvious that you're just trying to distract me, and that it's not part of the search result. > 4. UI Libraries are sets of components grouped into categories, like headers, pricing, etc. If I look at https://shuffle.dev/components/all/saturn/pricing, you're telling me this is a component. To me, the word component signifies an atom, something simple with a single purpose. This makes me think the "component" you talk about is one of the columns, but I think you mean it's the entire layout, including header. I.e. some assembly of components (perhaps super-component), in my taxonomy. That doesn't fit the bill of "atomic" and my brain just spins around trying to make sense of it all. OTOH, looking at https://shuffle.dev/components/all/saturn/footer, it seems that you're showing more than just a footer? I.e. what you are showing me is not the component, but the component in an example context. It's taken me five views of your search results to reverse engineer what it is I'm looking at, and understanding what your product is. Perhaps make the irrelevant parts shaded? Or add a toggleable frame around the actual component? |
We have used the term "components" for a long time. Some call them "sections" or "blocks". Still, I think "component" is a valid name, and many websites with components/sections/blocks use it.
