心流状态

Every aspect of IntelliJ IDEA is designed with ergonomics in mind. IntelliJ IDEA is built around the idea that every minute a developer spends in the flow is a good minute, and things that break developers out of flow are bad things. Every design and implementation decision considers the possibility of interrupting developer’s flow and seeks to eliminate or minimize it.（这句话美得我不想翻译。）

“Creative Flow” or just “Flow” is a state of mind where you feel evenly attuned, and focused on the task at hand.

创造心流是一种思考状态，是你感觉平和或专注于手头任务的时刻，通俗的理解就是当你沉浸于一件事时，有一种忘记时间与空间的感觉，心流会让你处于最佳的意识状态。McKinsey 在2010年的研究表明，当你处于心流状态，你的工作效率比非心流状态下的工作效率提高 500%。

通过这种设计理念的学习，不禁畅想：如果越来越多的产品，如果能像 IntelliJ IDEA 的产品体验一样，让人处于心流，高效完成任务，整体的生产效率将会成倍提升。
