väliekraanid

Väliekraanid, also known as intermediate screens or interim displays, are visual elements used in user interfaces to provide additional information or guide users through a multi-step process before they reach their final destination or complete an action. They are distinct from traditional loading screens as they often convey a specific message or present a choice rather than simply indicating that content is being fetched.

These screens can serve various purposes. They might confirm a previous action, such as "Your request has been submitted. Please check your email for confirmation," or offer a brief preview of what the user is about to experience. In e-commerce, a väliekraan might appear after adding an item to a cart, displaying the item and offering options like "Continue Shopping" or "Proceed to Checkout." They can also be used to display important disclaimers or terms before proceeding to a sensitive area of an application.

The design and implementation of väliekraanid aim to improve user experience by providing clarity and control. They prevent abrupt transitions and offer moments of reflection or confirmation, reducing potential user confusion or errors. However, overuse or poorly designed väliekraanid can lead to annoyance and hinder navigation, so their implementation requires careful consideration of the user flow and the value they genuinely add to the interaction. They are a tool to enhance communication and guidance within digital interfaces.
