UX Principles

  • History should be clear, transparent, and verifiable.
  • Offer both simple summaries and deeper technical details.

Guidelines

  1. Display fees separately from the amount.
  2. Prefer the Lightning address over the invoice description in titles for readability.
  3. Show associated metadata — at minimum the invoice and preimage.
    Keep under an expandable Details section to avoid clutter by default.
  4. Represent states: Pending, Succeeded, Failed (with distinct visuals).
