I've been playing with React Native WebGPU recently and it's really flipping my perspective on animations.

We've been using this in our own workflow at work. Fundamentally, we built this for ourselves. The design tool we want needs to cover 3 core workflows: 1. Direct Manipulation: Design on your real app instead of going back and forth with a separate canvas tool. 2. Intent-Aware Agents: AI that applies your design edits and understands whether you're working at the component or page level. 3. Designer-friendly Git: We think it will be easier if everyone use the same collaboration tool: Git. But it needs to make Git intuitive for designers with auto commits, PRs, and workspaces.






auto detect components in the next version of handmade

A small thank you to everyone using Claude: We’re doubling usage outside our peak hours for the next two weeks.
