Why UX Writing Matters
Every word in your interface is a microdecision that shapes user confidence, comprehension, and trust. A vague button label like "Submit" leaves users guessing what will happen next. A blame-first error message like "You entered an invalid email" creates unnecessary friction. Good UX writing is invisible – it guides users forward without making them think about the language itself. Bad UX writing is noticed immediately, and it erodes trust fast.
The rules behind this linter come from established UX writing research and patterns used by teams at Google, Mailchimp, Shopify, and Atlassian. They cover the most common mistakes: passive voice in CTAs, technical jargon in error states, empty states that dead-end rather than invite action. Run your copy through these checks before it ships – a two-minute review can prevent weeks of user confusion.
