The Adaptive UX Framework

Context Awareness

Design must dynamically sense and react to user state (location, time, device, network speed, intent).

Goal-Based Personalization

Experiences should optimize for the user's current goal, adjusting information hierarchy and features on the fly.

Performance & Scalability

Ensure adaptations are fast, seamless, and don't introduce performance bottlenecks or cumulative layout shifts.

Transparency & Control

Users must understand *why* the interface changed and have options to override or customize adaptive behavior.
