"I am still nervous... like I am hella stressed. But it gave me clarity and in some way calm."
A design engineer friend sent me a 4 minute voice note after running through a skill I built, based on @soleio 's "How You Source Great Designers" article.
8 years in. Job hunting. Portfolio almost done.
It didn't give him new info really. It just looked at what he already had and told him he was sitting on a month of content from existing case studies.
"I had never thought about it like that..."
Works from both ends: sourcing if you're hiring, positioning if you're the designer.

@kylezantos @soleio Thanks for this. It just told me to do what I've been doubtful about and procrastinating on

🪛Working on something... A reverse salary calculator that answers: "What do I actually need to earn in the UK and what roles should I aim for?". What if you started with your lifestyle and worked backwards? Still building but here's a 👀

Job search shouldn’t require 20 tabs and endless applications.
So I built something new.
Upload your CV and get matched to jobs, receive alerts tailored to your profile, and rewrite cover letters, all directly inside WhatsApp so you can manage your search on the go.
You can also ask it things like:
“Find jobs with visa sponsorship”
“Remote roles in London”
“Product design jobs near me”
Excited to share this soon.

Playing with Cursor today and made a dumb game that illustrates how bad humans are at recalling color.
Give it a try. Best score by the @lightspark Design team so far is 45.6.

I skipped doing a 2025 recap because I didn’t hit mosstt of my goals. But looking back, I think I actually did more than I gave myself credit for.

Whenever a new design to code tool comes around, people get excited. It’s considered the holy grail of design. You can now design with code. This is the final evolution.
But I don’t agree. It’s only the holy grail if you value output higher than the process of design.
Whenever a designer becomes more of a builder, some idealism and creativity dies. Not because building is bad, but because you start out including constraints earlier in the process than they should.
I’m one that very much thinks design is ultimately what is shipped. But before it shipped, there is a lot of stages that don’t benefit from code or some implementation constraints.
In architecture, a lot of the best work is started with sketches and some of the best architects still draw by hand. People forget that the creative process is not about tools. It’s about forming a vision, and then translating that vision into some form. You can use various tools as part of the process, but designers job is really communicating that vision.
Once you become the architect and the builder, or the designer and the developer, you start making more conservative bets. You gravitate to what you already know is feasible or supported. You make smaller iterations. You stop dreaming something big. This is not design.
Designers, don’t do that. Your job is to imagine the future, and sometimes code and convention gets in the way. Use tools. Understand the domain. Get close to the medium.
But don’t lose your greatest strength ability to dream. Work with engineers to realize those dreams.
Designing in code is just a path to local maxima and ruin.

Day 3 of a designer vibe coding an app to the App Store
First roadblock, apparently I can't test capabilities like Sign in with Apple unless i'm enrolled in the Apple Developer Program, which I don't want to do just yet.
I have to simulate a successful login to continue testing the rest of the app.
For now, i'm putting a hold on actually implementing things until I map out the entire experience, which i've found to be necessary otherwise Cursor will just make stuff up, even if explicitly told not to.
Starting with the onboarding.

@MoeminMamdouh for context, MCP was helpful in building up this LP in few hours.
hommie-lp.vercel.app
but not sure what for app, the result i got was not good.

@MoeminMamdouh I'm doing the same thing, I noticed as well Figma MCP is not reliable. Just curious to know how you want to handle the pixel implementation of the UI design with Play?

Day 2 of a designer vibe coding an app to the App Store
I've set up all the different environments in Xcode, connected Figma MCP, made my first commit, and came up with a few iterations for the initial screens.
I've noticed a few things that I'll need to take care of:
1- Figma MCP is not reliable, I will probably need to either learn more about Swift layouts and write them myself for cleaner results, or use Play for the UI and Cursor for the functionality.
2- Either i'm not optimizing my usage, or vibe coding generally takes up a ton of credit.
