You will forget about Liquid Glass’ accessibility challenges. Just like the last time. And the time before. Like it always happens. It happened with Android’s hamburger menu. When it first came out, we used to talk about how the hidden menu items and cognitive load weren't

Is Figma going to remain the most-used design tool for designers in 2030? What do you think? It is an important question to consider because you can only learn about so many design tools without going a bit crazy. Do you invest your time learning current tools (Figma, Framer,

Playing around with the CTA (LinkedIn, book a meeting, send an e-mail) of my portfolio website. It appears on scroll, blurs the background it overlaps, and disappears when not needed. Made in Webflow.

Happens to me 1-2x per year. This year already 2 times, but with a 50-50 or milestone payment structure in place, the damage isn’t that big.

Do you use animation in your product design work? To ruin or improve your work? Tools like Lottie and Rive make a website stand out. I use it all the time for websites. But it also has a downside. You can overdo it. And that’s a problem in several cases. What if, for example,

I've seen some talk about a need for 'Figma to [something]' help. Is that a thing? If so, I might be able to help! I've done Figma to Tailwind, Bootstrap, Laravel, and React (the list goes on😛) work in the past two years. Lots of fun!

Just out of curiousity and a willingness to learn: what is the main benefit or use case for running one of those new OpenAI local models vs. another remote model? Tagging Arvid Kahl because he’s the smartest AI guy I know and probably has a super clear answer 😛

That generated image also would be a responsive and performance nightmare. I assume Alex Socoloff’s alternative is vector based! :)

Really in a learning mood these last few days. Today’s question… how does Rive relate to Lottie for simple (micro) animations? You know, upload animations, dancing files, animated buttons, etc. No logic and data. Just an animation to make a boring app more interesting.

OpenAI is about to start a big (GPT5) livestream. Here are some important reminders. 1️⃣ First of all, be curious about the announcements, experiment using the new tools, and write about your thoughts on it. It’ll be good for you, your career, and the quality of content on the

Depending on the code base and what is being asked of you, you can design directly in code. You’d create visuals outside of code still, but setting up a UI in code directly is getting more accessible. I’m not talking about AI slop, but about the high-quality work you design.

It's okay to use both. Or all of them even. Within the design community, we're spending way too much time on "There's no reason to use [tool] anymore" talk. It's not worth it at all. Figma's fine. Just like Webflow and Framer. Lottie and Rive both are great. You can use ChatGPT

Worked on the technical SEO side of a client's website and blog. Mostly performance and <head> section stuff. They went from 900 clicks in three months to 1600 clicks in three months. Not bad!
