Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Haptic feedback | Choose haptic feedback when the tactile effect reinforces a visible interaction milestone and improves physical confidence without carrying required information alone. | A haptic effect plays only for a user-relevant interaction event and stays synchronized with the visible state change it reinforces. | Supports semantic strength, intentional timing, direct manipulation, and overuse constraints. |
