@TheCoderShow @claudeai @AnthropicAI Vadodara's been building fr.
Low noise, high output. Solid dev culture, people shipping high-intent projects like @met_engine & previously hosted successful events for @cursor_ai & @SuperteamIN
Also comprising active communities like @awsugbdq , @Web3Vadodara @apexia_club

Working on something similar, but mine’s got do with ASCII images and adding a noise behavior to the falloff

I'm seeing more studios and in-house teams building brand-specific visual tools.
They generate on-brand backgrounds, illustrations, and compositions. Custom outputs that feel native to the identity.
This fractal glass effect generator by Studio Justified for Indicium AI is a good example.
I'm also seeing designers creating these for their own workflow or sharing them with the community.
Currently collecting the best ones for a new project. If you've made one or came across something interesting, drop it below!

designers are confused right now.
the old workflows are fading fast. but there’s no clear new workflow either.
no one is discussing ux laws. no one’s debating colour theory. design system folks are quiet.
and the so called influencers are just dropping a new tool link every day. creating more noise.
but one thing is obvious, something big is shifting.
this is not the time to wait for someone to package a safe, step-by-step “modern design process” so you can copy it.
the process most of us follow was built in a different era. different tools. different constraints. it restricted designers into a canvas, into handoffs, into fixed roles. and we accepted it.
this is actually an opportunity.
instead of waiting for clarity, this is the time to test new workflows, rethink how we build, question what “designing” even means now.
because whatever gets figured out in this phase is what the next generation will treat as normal.

prepping some of the stuff we been upto since i started with hex.inc had sooo much fun zoning out on this one:

we aim to take privacy on Solana seriously.
Introducing Flew: a permissionless private prediction market on @solana + @Arcium
most prediction markets leak everything: who you are, how much you bet, and your positions.
Flew keeps that sensitive data private by default using Arcium’s encrypted MXEs, bet amounts + user identities remain encrypted end-to-end
(even the platform can’t read them)
we even sneaked in LP profits for the creators 👀
Anyone can:
- Create a market and bootstrap liquidity
- Bet on outcomes without revealing their size/identity
- Settle and withdraw trust-minimised on-chain
- (🤫) Creators earn LP profits from activity on their markets
Flew sustains itself via a small fee per bet + a cut of creator LP fees.

@DanHollick this is amazing, thanks for dropping down the whole process!

@ayushsoni_io really love the creative direction for this brand and web work!

I think the core is mostly done for now!! Extrude and rotate most svg shapes in full orthographic / isometric space! Ton's of controls....a lot of which are hidden to keep things simple.
LMK if you're interested in trying it out!

I love working with isometric so much! Working on a little plugin for @figma. Here is a small preview, is this something you'd want?

Designers have constantly morphed from Photoshop and Illustrator and Flash to Sketch to Figma. Before that, designers were using physical blades, rulers, and dark rooms. There wasn't even an undo button. Even before that they were designing with stone and clay!
Designers didn't die. They morphed and became STRONGER DESIGNERS.
All that you hear now is "AI will kill designers soon" but I remember when the Sketch diehards said that design was over for those that didn't switch Photoshop immediately.
Neither of those tools won. Figma did. Figma was simpler (though more limited in ways) to use and you could use it everywhere, even in browser. This brought the revolution of the simpler designed web/product over the last several years. Design became accessible to everyone, even those that can't design, designed.
However, the Sketchhards weren't completely wrong. The Photoshop people did just fine waiting for a true winner to finally join but eventually did need to move away or their careers would be harder.
Now, you have the AI folks saying the same type of thing. They are right but wrong, just like the Sketchens. I don't think the design tool is here yet so it's likely wise to still play with them all and enjoy this time. AI still needs help from designers either from "borrowing" mocks from Mobbin examples or screenshots or even comping our own designs in Figma, still, for somewhat of a feeling of control. This will change soon. It already is.
But that's today, not tomorrow. In one years time, this tool will be more visible to those ready. Like Figma, it'll take a bit for mainstream but those watching and ready to take action will get the upper hand.
I'm not worried about designers (good designers) losing work yet. We'll all just adapt like we always have. I'm worried about anyone, even developers and pms and everyone else that hasn't started using AI yesterday. Tomorrow isn't too late but one day, much like the Photoshopians, it kinda will be.
Designers that rise will be designers that just use the new tool. Instead of components and autolayout, you'll be prompts and words and your voice.
When this real design tool finally shows itself the true winner here are the designers that use it. Those that understand UX and good UI. Those that stay on top of the shift that's happening.
For now, Figma is still the tool for creating designs for businesses that care about design.
