How to combine components together
This concept is also referred to as "Design Patterns". Reusable combinations of components that address common user objectives with sequences and flows. If we structure our interfaces in similar ways, it will help us even further in creating a cohesive experience for our customers. An experience that makes it easier for them to achieve their objectives and goals.
Example: See our guidelines on Filtering
When to use which component
It's not always obvious when to choose one component over another. But there are often user experience and/or accessibility reasons for choosing the best component for the job. And if we consistently choose the same components for the same purposes, it will help us in creating a cohesive experience for our customers. Consistency creates trust.
Example: Should you use a popover, a tooltip or a modal?
How to use individual components
While you may find some guidelines on individual components, this is not the main focus in this area. Best practices will be found alongside the documentation for components.
Example: What are the best practices for tooltips?
