Why the typewriter effect? On product feel
Enes Demirel
In Düşün, the answer doesn't drop onto the screen as a block; it's written letter by letter. Decoration? No — it's the core of how the product feels.
Watching the answer being written creates the illusion of someone across the table — the difference between receiving a text as a notification and opening it as a letter.
Technically it's simple: the answer arrives whole, then flows out under control. The impatient can tap "show all" — the feeling is offered, never imposed.
Speed itself is a design decision: too slow becomes theater, too fast becomes noise. The right tempo runs one step ahead of reading speed.
"Sometimes the feature is how milliseconds feel."
