In this lesson, we break down one of the simplest but most powerful onboarding patterns: the welcome modal.
You’ll learn why your very first message matters, how to strike the right tone (think clarity over hype), and what key ingredients make a welcome modal effective: a clear purpose, a simple product explanation, and a next-step CTA that helps users move forward confidently.

By the end, you’ll know exactly how to create short, purposeful welcome modals that guide users without overwhelming them.
