understanding when not to animate is powerful,. a way you can figure this out, is by imagining how an interaction feels after 1000 uses. if it feels sluggish, remove it/tone it down. for example: menus used often don’t need to animate in every time; an exit animation is enough.

> more thoughts on organisation. i try to treat my boards like the way a chef treats his kitchen or a mechanic his workshop, everything in its place, intentional and tidy. there’s a certain pride in keeping things clean. some folks thrive in chaos, but i feel design deserves the.

this is how i try to name my layers. i try to match them one-to-one with how i want the final api to look. naming things this way helps me think through the component as i build it. structuring things like this helps me build quicker.

people don’t know what they want, this is why opinionated software generally does better than others.
