Damn, they’re really going to miss you. You’ve shipped so many incredible projects and alongside @shadcn, I think you’ve been the most crucial force behind the success of Shadcn UI, and honestly a big part of what made v0 and the AI SDK what they are today. Keen to see where you land! 🤙

Today is my last day at Vercel. I've had an absolute blast over the last year. I got to work on a lot of my own projects that helped form the basis for our AI Cloud, helped other teams ship their great ideas, and worked alongside some of the most talented people I've ever met. I'll have news on my next adventure for you on Tuesday but for now, wanted to reflect on my time here and the projects I worked on. Read on if you're interested ↓

@resend auto-configure @vercel domain is magic!

@adxtyahq The number of YC startups building”AI site builders” that have stolen my work from @shadcnblocks is unbelievable.

PearAI literally forked an open source IDE repo funniest part? YC backed lmao

Awesome

@iannuttall Might be easier to start with a block library like @shadcnblocks and then iterate on it

the true test: can ui.sh turn gpt 5.4 into a good frontend designer?

@Shefali__J Wrong it has its place

!important in CSS and why you probably shouldn’t use it🔥 Open this🧵 Bookmark for later🔖

My boy composer is back. @cursor_ai Composer 2.0 is letting me do alot of the iterative work on @shadcnblocks ui components that I was using Opus 4.5 for. Used to used Composer 1 ALOT, but didnt use 1.5 much,

@reui_io @shadcn Wow how are you building so many blocks so fast!

We spent 2 straight days crafting(almost no tokens used😅) this layout with @shadcn sidebar. Join the waitlist 👇to claim 40% off! This is just 1 of 1000+ hand-crafted Pro blocks.

@naymur_dev @vercel I’m happy for you but I’m quite surprised vercel accepted a paid ui library?

The biggest pain is resolved now, no matter how much traffic it gets, I don’t have to worry about it anymore. Glad to be part of the 2026 cohort. Thanks to @vercel for creating this wonderful OSS program Explore ui-layouts.com 👀

@jamesyeung18 They didn’t really work in 7

Midjourney v8 with Personalized Moodboards Below are some examples of v8 with Moodboards. They turned out somehow different from what I expected from the moodboards but are still very nice. However, I also find that some of my Moodboards cannot be used on v8. Some resulted in an error. Some produced shockingly bad output with poor visuals and resolution (back to v4). So again, hit and miss.

@surjithctly Congrats!🙌

I know MRR posts are outdated, but I have to share this because I waited 5 years for this milestone. Web3Forms finally hit $10k MRR 🥳 When I first posted this in reddit 5 years, I got 0 likes and 1 view. I never launched it in product hunt (yet). Took time, but hell yeah!

@naymur_dev It doesn’t work reliably

Testing & trying tailwindcss obfuscation. I think, it'll save your pro template, blocks & components

@jonathan_wilke @supastarter 349

What do you think is the better price for @supastarter ? $349 or $299 ?

@HBCoop_ Need more time, not sure 🤔

Midjourney v8 has been launched! What is everyone's initial thoughts...? 👀

@allgarbled These disgust me

I don’t know what you call them, but these little side tabs are like the emdash of vibe coded UIs

@davidhdev @nuqs47ng @orcdev Omg 🤯

@nuqs47ng and @orcdev said I couldn’t do it but now you can officially have this bad boy follow your cursor around on a web page. Be afraid. reactbits.dev/backgrounds/ev…

@rabi_guha @shadcn Keen to run some @shadcnblocks through this

Generative UI agents can now render real @shadcn/ui components. @shadcn /ui support is now live in OpenUI.

@T_Zahil Is it easier than using clean shot or screen studio, if like something that just makes everything from a url

💥 I'm glad to announce a new partnership between Uneed and AfterCut! Uneed users, you can now use AfterCut to record and export a launch video for your product, for free! Once your video is exported, you'll get a special link to use on Uneed, which will render like this 👇🏻

@tomhan245 Worth what the market will pay, most indie saas worth far less than their multiple. Most indie saas founders never sell cause they stubborn about these valuation metrics

Most indie founders have no idea what their SaaS is worth. So I built a tiny SaaS valuation calculator today. Just enter ARR + growth → instant estimate. Now I’m curious 👀 What multiple would you give a small SaaS?

@DenisJeliazkov Indeed

Most design systems are ego projects.
