Header Navigation

In product making, while surfing through the solution we must ensure to the end-user that where the user is landing. And thus navigation is an important aspect while crafting interfaces. It helps in enhancing the accessibility of the solution. Also if the navigation is optimized it helps to user for better mapping and hence less time to track.

As problem solvers, we must know that every feature should make sense to the user. If the usability is taken care it gives meaning to every pixel. Only a search option while navigating through the solution will not be helpful. Because as human beings we try to jump to the solution quickly. And thus if the cognitive load is lesser there are more chances to increase engagement. These are some interaction nuances help in building intelligent machines.

Like this navigation plays a crucial part in user-centred solutions, it helps the user to know;

- In what part of the solution user is - Enhances the usability and adds value to customer experience - Easy navigation = more engagement, thus more confidence and expectations.

With this, we must think from the lens of cognitive aspects. Because these nudges could help the user to think less. And thus for that, we must set up internal and external consistency. Also, we have to think of flexibility POV. And for that accelerators would help the user for shortcuts; and inefficiency is taken care of.
