Domain-specific

• Direct Manipulation
  • Direct manipulation is a human-computer interaction paradigm, articulated by Ben Shneiderman in the early 1980s, in which the user controls a system by acting physically on a continuously visible representation of the objects of interest — dragging, resizing, pinching, pointing — rather than issuing symbolic commands that refer to those objects indirectly
• Object–Action Interface
  • Shneiderman's direct-manipulation account supplies the closely related requirements of continuous object representation, physical action, rapid feedback, and reversible operations.
