Free fonts are so good these days - Martian Mono from Roman Shamin and Evil Martians - with my tweaked P3 colors in native Terminal⁠.app. Not aware of any other terminal that allows full gamut colors.

> Python prototypes are the coolest ones I’ve ever made, cooler than any Origami prototype by George Kedenburg III / Dive Club 🤿 youtu.be/IpmUZlDpbtE?si… So true. Years ago, I switched from Origami to SwiftUI/TS/Python. No regrets: learning curve is similar, possibilities are far broader.

You can use pure black in your UI or avoid it. Just make sure to store it in OKLCH format.

My European mind cannot comprehend how lucky I am. Since I started looking for my next role, I’ve had the honor of meeting and speaking with so many incredibly awesome people. Just wow.

If Granola would organize a meetup for design engineers who would we invite? Specifically from London or from somewhere else in Europe 👀

Built an amazing open source project or developer tool? Now you need a landing page that proves it! We analyzed 100+ dev tool landing pages and here's what works best in 2025. (Plus, we share our free open source template so you can ship within minutes!)

My colleagues and I at Evil Martians made a free landing page template for dev tool startups — something early-stage teams can grab and launch with fast. 👉 launchkit.evilmartians.io Here’s the story of how we came up with it 🧵

I like the thread, but I also want to gently remind everyone that there’s no such thing as a universal standard for font sizing. Different fonts look different at 16pt.

Absolutely yes. And yes, a good UI font should always have a monospace sibling in the family.
