@mathurahravi 👋

putting together a lil community of designers/design engineers making cool things! lmk if you wanna join!

@CharlesPattson I know, right?? There used to be this crazy good tool called Invision Studio… way ahead of it’s time 😢

I just want to animate with a timeline inside Figma.

@guerriero_se Absolutely love this aesthetic you’ve refined. So good!

I like designing web apps.

@severinlandolt @tailwindcss Fricken sick, yo!

before: & after: gets you very far in @tailwindcss

@nateparrott Nate, you’re currently living my dream with your sick side project. This is incredibly cool!

design tool update: the apps it can make are gradually getting more complicated! here's a full podcast player

@TheJMoore @figma Nice! Any API calls needed for this, or you’re just iterating through the object and creating layers?

Super niche, but on my flight from SFO to IND yesterday I made a plugin that outputs a JSON Tree in @figma 🎉

@almonk Looks so sick! Also, love the autocomplete text detail. You should change it to “sandwiches” when you hover over it

last bit of polish just landed ✨poolside.ai

@JohnPhamous I’ve wanted something like this in Slack for years!

date times should show - absolute local time - relative time - times for your team

@nateparrott Just making your own Webflow from scratch real quick eh?

WIP design tool: - generate new types of editable interactive objects - place them on a canvas - publish to web

@k_grajeda Looks sick!

Excited to share a new tool I’m building! It lets you intuitively configure CSS spring easings for smoother and more natural-looking animations

@JohnPhamous Actually incredible aesthetic execution. That 1px blur really seals the deal 👌

join the vercel design team

@nateparrott Damn, this is good. I love it!

day 3/3 of finally open-sourcing my unfinished projects: 🪟 START MENU 💾 A menu in your mac menu bar, and a portal to a world where windows 98 never ended and any app you can imagine exists....

@davidhoang Good ol Smart Objects! The original “symbols” 🫶

Building UI complements with Smart Objects in Photoshop, Layer Comps for key views, easy import to Interface Builder and Quartz Composer was a vibe.

@CharlesPattson Amen 🤜🤛

90% of design is thinking you're a terrible designer

@ilyamiskov @figma Component SLOTS SLOTS, SLOTS SLOTS SLOTS SLOTS, EVERYBODY!

What's one feature you think Figma is missing?

@okaysee @figma I wish that components had slots 👀 I.e., designated drop areas that can hold: - other components - plain ol layers Can be left empty or have default contents in the main component. This would allow for much more customization without breaking from main component!

We’re heading into planning season at @figma and I could use a hand—what would you like to see in the design tool if you were running things?

@okaysee @colourfulchris @figma I’ll add my own wishlist for prototyping! - Real inputs (such as support for full text input in prototypes) - Fine-tuned transition timing on smart animate (e.g., delay a layer’s animation by a set amount) - Native video/gif export for prototypes

@colourfulchris @figma What sort of things would you like to prototype that you can’t?

@CharlesPattson Couldn’t agree more. You make the design world a better place, Charles! Always grateful for your good energy and kindness 🤜 🤛

Be kind to your fellow design friends. There’s a lot of upset and frustration in the industry at the moment. Job security is at an all time low and there’s a lot of redundancies happening. Some people need an internet hug 🫂 Try and be that person.

Had a blast doing our first session at #DF23 ! If you missed it, there’s another one on Thursday at 3pm

@TedGoas @imkylelambert This is a super helpful resource, thanks for writing it Ted!

@imkylelambert I just wrote about my own struggle through this, which includes some resources that helped me: medium.com/p/902e0cc64858

Most designers believe they know more about business than they actually do. Myself included. What are best business education resources for designers?
