- Alert Dialog: A blocking confirmation that must be answered: the scrim does not dismiss it, focus starts on the safe choice, and an async action keeps it open until…
- Bottom sheet: A phone panel that rests at a peek and follows the finger to full height; a flick down closes it, and the handle works from the keyboard.
- Command menu: Search-first list of every action: ranked matching, groups, keycap shortcuts and nested pages; inline as CommandPalette or in a ⌘K dialog as CommandMenu.
- Context menu: Actions for an object on right-click, long-press, Shift+F10 or the menu key, opened at the pointer, with the same rows as the dropdown menu.
- Dialog: A focused task over the page (create, invite, rename) with a title, body and footer; focus moves in, is trapped and returns on close.
- Dropdown menu: A list of actions behind a trigger, with shortcuts, check items, headings and submenus; one highlight glides under the pointer and jumps with the keyboard.
- Hover card: A preview of a person, link or record on hover or keyboard focus, without leaving the page; HoverCardProfile is the standard person preview.
- Popover: A small surface anchored to a trigger for a short form, a filter or an explanation; focus moves in and returns on close.
- Toast: Short results of an action stacked at an edge: point at the stack to fan it out and pause the timers; undo or retry in place; Alt+T, Escape and a swipe…
- Tooltip: Short supporting text for a control: opens after a moment on hover and at once on keyboard focus; inside a toolbar group the next one opens instantly.
