Why spend a week on a portfolio when I can make a video in 30 minutes? Looking for a badass designer? DM me now. Not hiring? Share this anyway

On my way to the airport now. Just wanted to say thanks, I had a great time, met some really cool folks, and the talks were inspiring. Big thanks to @drewwilson for making it happen. See you online!

Nothing drives me crazier than this: I can type my damn prefix in 1s, but instead I’m forced to scroll through 200 flags to find my country. Stop copy-pasting bad patterns

And you can only see it with your eyes. Take a screenshot and it gets flattened back to SDR, so all you see is plain white

In plain words, the page background is FFFFFF white, the button is white too. But when you tap it, it glows even brighter. That’s HDR

Surprised no one mentioned it yet: iOS 26 is using HDR in the UI. Not just for photos or video, but for interface elements too. That means some elements can be 'brighter than white'

btw this whole rich interface came out of GPT-5 from just one prompt. Pretty complex, clean and it actually works. I’m not sure if that’s cool or scary

I finally sat down and rewrote Displace for @figma from the ground up. It’s super fast, with a completely new set of effects, and now it can export filter code you can paste right into your site! Sooooon

Just bought the lifetime deal of @referodesign All because of one tweet I saw 3 months ago. Lesson? Every interaction counts.

@celiarozalenm @marckohlbrugge we definitely have a better search, so in practice, it's much easier to find what you really need with Refero

I mean, it’s not like you can open DevTools, use Spector.js, capture every WebGL call, extract the full shader code and… you know… publish it. But you wouldn’t do that. That would be clearly unethical. Right? 😉

Wait, Figma built a liquid glass effect… and never shared the WebGL shader or made it reusable for devs? Why not make it a public?

Was just messing around in Figma, trying to mock up a shockwave / sonic boom effect two hours later… I vibecoded a whole plugin that does exactly that and nothing else 😅 funny how you can go from “let me try this real quick” to “guess I’m writing tools now” without even
