Should I use modal or new page?
Modals are a good fit if your users often switch between products and the interactions are limited. New page is a good fit if the interactions are various and somewhat complex, but you do not ease switching to other projects.
Should I use modals for forms?
The solution is easy: don't use modal windows. At least when you need to put something complex inside them. The only objection I can think of is that you can immediately return back to the list after you close the modal.
What is the difference between modal and popup?
Modals, like pop-ups, are components that pop up on a user's screen. The key difference, however, is that the user would have initiated the action as part of their journey. Modals are used for specific workflows such as adding users, deleting content, sharing content, adding content, and more.
What can I use instead of modal?
In almost all cases, there is no need to force users into specific actions. As a result, modal windows introduce unnecessary pain points for your users. Instead, you should aim to create modeless user interfaces. Modeless user interfaces allow users to change their mind at any point.
