Empty States - UI Element

Empty states happen when the content of an item can’t be shown. Empty states can display in UI/UX design a wide collection of elements including list items, search bars that return no results, animations, or illustrations.

‍

• Let’s get started – This state occurs usually when first entering an input or page. As the users have not entered, created or modified the items that need to appear there.

• Waiting for you – These states appear when the input hasn’t yet been created and it indicates that the user needs to complete the field.

• Come back soon – This state is used when the data that should be provided is not ready yet.

• Everything looks great –  This state is used when the user completes all the necessary fields or tasks.

• Upgrade now – This state appears when the user doesn’t have the necessary subscription that can sustain the features.

• No results found – This empty state is used when the search system does not find the needed information.

‍

• When a certain app, site, or website is not launched let the users know that it will appear soon.
• Help the users see if they entered an unknown input.
• Empty states have the meaning of filling empty fields when the data is missing and can be displayed everywhere on a design.
• They can be encountered when errors such as permission issues, system issues, or configurations are required to happen.
