UI Speak, a Conceptual Dictionary

What do we mean when we say ‘sorting’ or that something should be ‘sticky’? When team members communicate, they need a shared language to discuss UI patterns, interactions, and behaviours. When a designer refers to a ‘dropdown’ or a ‘modal’, other designers and developers need to have the same thing in mind. Inspired by pattern languages as pioneered by Christopher Alexander, UI Speak is a conceptual dictionary for user interface design.
