So stoked to introduce the new ColorBox today! It's available at Colorbox.io or Colorbox.dev. (colorbox.io is currently rolling out, so it may not be immediately available there) Here's some of what's new: Multi-color editing

OKLCH in Colorbox?🤔 Probably the most single requested feature over the past 5 years.

Quietly shipped v2 of coloralgorithm. Mostly modernization, but with much better testing. Sometimes the most valuable upgrade is better error messages. @k-vyn/coloralgorithm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">npmjs.com/package/@k-vyn…

Thanks to everyone who’s shared feedback over the past five years on ColorBox. A bunch of new updates are live. The Figma plugin is next. Let me know what you’d like to see — especially thoughts on the mobile version. colorbox.io

@pagebakers Yeah, I've been thinking about to best do this recently

@kvyn_ any plans to improve (or open source) colorbox.io ? The tool is amazing, but it'd be super helpful to be able to simply export the color ranges into json, css or a tailwind config for example.

Making progress on big design updates 👀 And no, I don't name my layers.

@united Nope, I’m done with United. I’m all @Delta now ✌️ Flew more than a million with Delta and never had this type of experience in the 100,000 with y’all.

@kvyn_ Hi, Kevyn. if you still need assistance with your luggage, please DM your delayed baggage reference number. ^AF twitter.com/messages/compo…

@Stammy Strongly agree. Your design also greatly impacts the implementation. Maybe for basic web pages, but anything with state management or app like. It'll slow you way down.

disagree you can do basically anything on the web. you can do basically anything in figma.. just faster. *especially* when going wide to explore things where one frame to the next you'll have a completely different layout. web will slow you down. world.hey.com/dhh/design-for…

@JuanArreguin @figma If you're down to code, you can manage assets on a server or somethird party, and then bring them into figma via plugin as fill overrides.

@kvyn_ @figma Yeah, so right now I have one huge Instance component that has the Icon name and the icon size as properties. When I need to add a new one, it triggers the chain of updates to the rest of the libraries - so I’m trying to figure out how to consolidate that/make it better.

Okay, @figma friends, here's the scenario: - Avatar Library - This library contains sizes (16, 32, 64, etc.) - Constantly adding to the library (think like business entities) - Globally used library that gets called in other libraries. How do you maintain it? The constant update forces every library to republish components containing avatar library instances. How would y'all solve this?!

Crying inside right now 🥲

@maedawip I bet they’re not even made of real buffalo either.

@thinmatt This was me exactly 2 days ago. I feel like WBC is trying to make a world sport out of a very regional sport, so they like big name countries with full rosters, and the rules/details are whatever gets them there.

So like… I guess anyone can play for any country in the WBC? Cuz I didn’t realize Trace Thompson was British…

@thinmatt @travisladue Original tweet twitter.com/soren_iverson/…

@travisladue What even is this?!

I know it’s satire, but nested “joke” here is that someone is getting reported for taking care of their kids. The lack of empathy for parents in the workplace is rampant. Jokes or not. Do better.

@zach__johnston Ah got it. Without knowing more I would guess performance wouldn't be much different (unless it's enormous), especially since you have 15 or so icons anyways that'd also need to be loaded.

@kvyn_ I drew this in Framer and added some fun little appear animations, but nothing mission critical. I can easily export it to PNG and scrap the animations, but only if it’s a worthwhile perf boost.

Need help. Which is better for page performance and load speeds? 🅰️ Drawing this diagram directly in HTML 🅱️ Drawing it in Figma and exporting a PNG Note: There are ~80 DOM nodes, and ~10 have shadows.

@MattBond21 @elonmusk Convenient bug, huh?

@kvyn_ @elonmusk Also what algorithm was being tweaked that could cause a bug that only promotes his tweets?

Several major media sources incorrectly reported that my Tweets were boosted above normal levels earlier this week. A review of my Tweet likes & views over the past 6 months, especially as a ratio of followers, shows this to be false. We did have a bug that briefly caused replies to have the same prominence as primary Tweets, but that has now been fixed.

@yitong Glad you asked for my opinion on this matter. So here’s what I think about this whole issue… Jk. The game is good fwiw.

@MattBond21 @elonmusk Lol I’ve literally blocked him but I get push notifications. 🤣 Twitter feels like Elon’s newsletter at this point.

@elonmusk Bro my whole timeline was your tweets and replies. Because I didn’t like them = fake news?
