Microsoft fluent design subtle UI update looks incredible

Hey what's up my friends. You might be heard about Microsoft fluent design system. Fluent is an open-source, cross-platform design system that gives designers and developers the frameworks they need to create engaging product experiences—accessibility, internationalization, and performance included.

Fluent design was actually announced in 2017, and its originally known as 'Project Neon'.  Fluent design system will work across all devices and services, so Microsoft called it a universal design system. Fluent design system is expanding to Microsoft team soon. I saw the first look of web version and it looks incredible.  Yes its looks incredible!. The shade, rounded corner icons, the blur effect, more purple color everything look's great. The fluent design is not only concentrating on blur effects and revealing highlights it also giving importance to the UI. 

Microsoft have a pretty decent UI, but its not super exciting. With a translucent background, and new Fluent Design icons, is definitely a step in the right direction, but it doesn’t go far enough. If there’s one thing that Windows 10 really needs, it’s a visual overhaul, and making good use of Microsoft’s Fluent Design system, with blur effects, transforms a slightly bland looking operating system into something amazing.

I have no idea whether they will retain the dark mode in their latest design, because I didn't notice anything related to dark mode in Microsoft latest notices. When Microsoft Teams desktop and mobile apps will get the Fluent Design makeover is still an unknown.

Microsoft confirmed that fluent design for teams will be begin rolling out to testers in November and all others will get at the end of the December. The November update for Microsoft Teams is also expected to introduce a bunch of other improvements, including the improved messaging, notification features, and new meeting options. As of now the updated user interface is coming to the web version only. The desktop client is expected to receive in next year.

The Fluent Design System improves with multiple inputs. Microsoft continuously learn and improve the system based on feedback they receive from their customers, partners, and community of developers and designers.
