Three Design-to-Code Rules Most Developers Ignore (That Will Make You a Better Engineer)

13+ hour, 36+ min ago   (488+ words) Bridging the gap between Figma mockups and production UI doesn't require complex new frameworks—it requires system thinking.

The Purple Gradient Problem: Why AI UI All Looks Alike (and How to Fix It)

1+ day, 4+ hour ago   (799+ words) You can spot it in about three seconds. There's even an origin story. In August 2025, Adam Wathan — the creator of Tailwind CSS — posted a half-serious apology on X that got over a million views. He was sorry, he said, for…...

1+ day, 16+ hour ago   (720+ words) I gave the same Hangman UI kata to three Codex models using only one prompt each and watched how Seed4J CLI helped them plan, fix mistakes and keep going. Tagged with ai, agents, webdev, showdev....

How to add country icons to a Vue 3 app

3+ day, 4+ hour ago   (632+ words) That is the whole path. Below: sizing, color, accessibility, and picking an icon when you only know the country at runtime. Add the package to your project: The package ships as ES modules and sets "sideEffects": false. Vite reads your…...

How to take over a design built in Figma Make and develop it with Claude Code

1+ week, 6+ hour ago   (464+ words) A Figma Make export runs as-is with npm run dev. The README tells the story. A README that says "the original lives in Figma." That symbolizes the character of the output: the code is a projection of the Figma design,…...

How to Change Themes with the Operating System in a Qt App

1+ week, 3+ day ago   (517+ words) It turns out, I got the timeline wrong. The first bit of work I did on Packet Sender was to test light mode. See, Dan Nagle, creator and maintainer of Packet Sender, had implemented light and dark mode. But he…...

`sponsors/ibelick`: A Practical Look at Skills for Design Engineers

1+ week, 3+ day ago   (228+ words) Design engineers increasingly work across two systems: the visual language of a product and the implementation details that make it usable.

Structured designs produce better apps, so I built a workspace for making them

1+ week, 4+ day ago   (269+ words) A structured design produces a better app than a prompt or a pile of notes. That's the whole premise. When the screens, data models, routes, and roles are pinned down before any code exists, three things happen: I wanted a…...
