Empty, loading and error states
What each screen says when there is nothing to show yet, while it loads, and when something fails. Each one says one true thing and offers one way forward.
Every screen
Loading, failure and search with no results look the same everywhere.
Shows when a screen is fetching. Grey blocks in the shape of the real rows; no spinner. The pulse stops if the phone asks for less motion.
Loading what is new in your communities
Shows when the network drops or the server fails. One line on what happened, one way to retry. Nothing typed is lost.
Shows when a search finds nothing. Repeat what they typed, then point to the person most likely to know.
No person, business or ask matches “LLP agreement drafting”.
Home
