Pop Ups
Design System - Pop Up component
The Popups Card component is a focused, interruptive component used to convey critical information or require immediate user interaction. It follows DIGIT’s principles of accessibility, responsiveness, and contextual clarity to ensure that users are guided without ambiguity and can take informed action without navigating away from their current flow.
// Sample code
<CheckBox
label="Label"
onChange={(e)=>{console.log(e.target.checked}}
/>Anatomy
Variants
Default
Displays informative messages or prompts for user actions with optional titles, descriptions, and buttons.
Alert Used to communicate critical errors or system-level alerts, typically styled in red with an alert icon to grab attention.
Properties
Icon for heading
Both variants support contextual icons next to headings, such as info or warning icons, to enhance clarity and visual hierarchy.
Descriptions A paragraph below the heading provides additional details or instructions for the user.
Action buttons Configurable with either a single primary button or both primary and secondary actions, allowing flexible interaction.
Custom height & width The component adapts to mobile, tablet, and desktop screen sizes, with scalable height and width to maintain visual balance and usability, adjusting the button's height and font size.
Property Configuration Table
Each design component offers a range of configurable options. These options are intentionally platform-agnostic, allowing implementations to adapt and tailor them to align with the specific requirements of the chosen framework.

Usage Guide
Prioritise user actions
Use a clear call-to-action like “Continue” or “Submit” as the primary button, and pair it with a secondary option like “Cancel” when applicable. Don’t overload the pop-up with too many buttons or unclear labels that can confuse the user.
