Content recommendations

  • try to use labels with short, scannable text
  • try to use a single word to describe the status of an element
  • try to describe the status in the past tense, like changed or archived

Accessibility

  • text must be clear enough for color-blind users to be able to understand immediately without needing to rely only on the color.
