Maersk Design System: Dialog
Defines dialog as a disruptive overlay for decisions or acknowledgement, recommends sparing use for high urgency, and explicitly names destructive-action confirmation as a valid dialog use.
Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ambiguous destructive action copy | Flag this anti-pattern when the destructive or safe action label does not name what will happen. | Every destructive control label must answer what action will happen and what object or scope it affects. | Dialog guidance supports deliberate destructive confirmations rather than vague modal decisions. |
| Destructive action confirmation | Choose destructive action confirmation when a destructive command needs a final commit review before permanent or externally visible loss. | The confirmation appears only after a user-initiated destructive command. | Maersk dialog guidance reserves disruptive dialogs for decisions and explicitly includes destructive-action confirmation. |
Evidence Role
This source is treated as pattern-library evidence. Use it to validate the decision rules above, not as a visual style reference.
