Micro-interactions are subtle animations or feedback loops that occur when a user interacts with a single small element of the UI (like a button changing color when hovered or a "vibrate" when an error occurs).

How do micro-interactions improve usability?

They provide "System Feedback." They confirm to the user that their action was recognized. For example, a small "Checkmark" animation after clicking "Save" reduces the anxiety of "Did it actually work?"
