.@_lhermann shared an absolute masterclass on @stagetimerio in our interview last year, and it's now available as a full YouTube video 👀 Check it out here: youtu.be/8uXz9qpgYSg

Weekly design work! This week at Relevance AI I focused on a more engaging start screen for Relevance Chat 👀

Here's my new painting video, a portrait painted over the last few weeks 🎨

Weekly design work post! This past week at @RelevanceAI_ I designed the start screen for our slides product, going from a minimal text input to a rich drawer of options and parameters to set and tweak 🎨 Here's the before and after:

This week's DrawKit update focuses on the editor! I have a simple, bare-bones first version working, with a single test illustration, and it's very fun clicking around already 🥳 Full details of this week's updates here: www.drawkit.com/post/buildi...

Full YouTube video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc-... This week's Milestones video features Camille, co-founder of Rosie Lou, a sustainable greeting card and stationary company! She shares everything from product research, suppliers, first customers, first markets, and loads more 👀

I'm thinking of sharing regular in-progress design work each week from my work at Relevance AI 🤓 This week projects: - Queuing messages in the chat app - A nice visual landing for the Slides agent - Adding integrations to the chat app, with a fun animated Gameboy cartridge

Lots of progress on @UseDrawKit over the last 2 weeks 🤓 User auth, Supabase, Render, Directus, dashboard page, and some fun extra things. Check it out: www.drawkit.com/post/buildi...

This week's @milestones_so interview is with Cai, founder of Soy Street. We talk about her journey from lawyer to a full-time fashion illustrator, working with brands like Hermès, BVLGARI, Prada, Dior, and so many more 🖌️ Full video: youtu.be/Oj34FkS5Vgw...

.@reweb_so is one of the coolest design/dev tools I've seen recently, combining Cursor, Webflow, Tailwind, Figma, & more Last year I talked with co-founder @mattiapomelli about his journey building it: challenges, successes, and future plans 🎥 Full vid: youtu.be/AkKHI5ikvew...

Setting a Cursor rule to swap any instance of "I can see the issue now!" to "lemme jus try something wild real quick"

Instagram finally broke out of their 3 column, small width desktop layout!

For everyone craving a slop-free, ad-free, influencer-free, algorithm-free social network, just reminding that @retrodotapp is wonderful!

Here's this week's DrawKit update! Finally spent time designing 🕺 🔗 The post: www.drawkit.com/post/buildi...

Here's my conversation with the very inspiring Riniapple from last year 🥳 We talk YouTube, illustration, creating webcomics, and the relationship between creative expression and the comic/publishing industry. 🎥 Full video here: youtu.be/tOksJINwwqw...

The AI apps I'm using daily: - Granola - Wispr Flow - Cursor Importantly, they all extend what I can already do. They're like the align tools in Figma; I could do it manually, but these speed up existing ability.

I wish iPhones had an option to lock the screen. I'm tired of accidentally skipping podcasts/dismissing notifications/hanging up on someone/blasting the volume whenever I grab my phone out of my pocket. Here's a rough idea I came up with that could work.

God I love @hankgreen 👏 youtu.be/Vz0oQ0v0W10...

When I was a kid, I saw diversity all over the media I consumed because we all understood it was a good thing. Now suddenly any display of diversity is considered dangerous. Wonder why.

Here's this week's DrawKit progress update. It was a bit of a waste of a week, due to some crazy bandwidth problems 🥲 www.drawkit.com/post/buildi...

I think the most important question we’ll need to ask ourselves as builders in the new AI age is no longer "is it possible for me to build this?" and instead "is it responsible for me to build this?" We're squarely in the "...they didn't stop to think if they should” era.

I have beheld the orange telephone with mine own eyes, and I find it pleasing.

One of the most underrated things about @linear is they make it very hard to stuff up. The amount of times I've accidentally closed something or my page has refreshed, while writing a super long comment/ticket, only to find it waiting safely for me when I return is incredible 👏

@antoineminoux.bsky.social is an incredibly talented founder, building both getfernand.com/ and improvmx.com/ while working at Yelp. We chatted about his process behind building ImprovMX, the delight he aims for with Fernand, and so much more in the new Milestones video. Link below 👇

Ooh DJI getting in on the tiny magnetic camera market 👀 this is very tempting...

I had a very productive week last week 🥳 Here's stuff I got done: ✍️ DrawKit: new company update weekly blog post 🎥 Milestones: new YouTube video 🎥 Painting: new YouTube video Details & links in the thread 👇

Okay...I think we're looking okay for Webflow bandwidth management and costs 🫠 The next 24 hours should tell. Then finally back to building

Currently in Webflow bandwidth cost hell please pray for me

Woah, Poke has the wildest onboarding I've ever seen

The main reason I want a bright orange iPhone

These 1 hour + live videos from Fred Again are the perfect lock-in music

Da Vinci Resolve is such an incredible application. Rock-solid, and has every feature I could imagine.

One day in and I really really like iOS 26. Feels like lots of excellent improvements (better formatting bar in Notes! Nicer share sheet! Easy to access camera controls! Clean photos layout! Better screenshot management!) even on my old iPhone 13

Audiobook narrators having to “sing” song lyrics in their narration without actually singing the song is always hilarious

Man, I have like 3 or 4 really promising ideas for apps/products to build in addition to DrawKit and Milestones, and I can't wait to tinker with them. Making things is so much fun.

I've decided I've done enough courses, I'm going to learn the rest as I go building an online editor for @UseDrawKit ✏️ Today: new Nuxt project, new repo, deployed on Vercel, and set up Supabase. I'm now stuck trying to resolve endless bugs with shadcn 🥲

Yeesh @posthog's new site is fantastic

An unexpected side effect of coding, vs Bubble/Webflow, is the reduced need for a large monitor. Working in an IDE, rather than a visual UI with extensive side panels, means less screen real estate needed to view everything at 100% (and more time spent working in cafes!)

One thought that’s helped me hugely through Webflow, Bubble, and now React, is that you don’t need to “learn to code”, you need to “learn to code YOUR app”. You don’t need to know everything to build and launch something, just your features. And you’ll learn the rest as you go.

Wish I could mute/block any LinkedIn post that includes the phrase "{App name} is dead" 🫠

Trying out having @zen_browser as my default browser this week as an Arc replacement. Super nice so far 🤞

Trying to find anything in macOS settings is still chaos. There are too many top-level options, rather than sections progressively expanding under a tree setup

Switching from an Apple Watch to a nice watch + a Whoop Band hidden under my shirt on my arm has been such a massive life upgrade

Just installed @getfernand.com‬ on DrawKit.com. It's such a breathe of fresh air, really considered, beautifully-crafted software. Lovely job @antoineminoux.bsky.social‬ 👏

This is Tuffy. He is the only example of taking up the whole sidewalk that is not only justifiable, but encouraged. 14/10 (IG: mypittuffy)

I now get the love for Tailwind

Since 1st July I’ve finished all my foundational JavaScript courses, intro Vue courses, and am just about to begin on the full project build courses. First up is a mini Vue app, and then a 12 hour full-stack app build with Nuxt. I am having so much fun with this 😁

I miss Tweetbot

Claude Code is an amaaazing learning aid. I build each example app following my course, write all code by hand, and then ask countless questions to Claude Code about every line in every file I’m unclear about, until the entire codebase and how it fits together makes sense 🤩

The funniest and dumbest reason I don’t use iCloud Drive is you can’t download a folder from the web. You can see the folder. But can’t. Download. It. What.
