Music and Web Design
9.12.2019
Brad has a long history in music outside of being a web designer, and draws some interesting parallels. One is that he had reached for more complex music in an effort to become a better musician — and developers can do the same thing. The other is that the composition of music can be seen...
Having a Little Fun With Custom Focus Styles
2.12.2019
Every front-end developer has dealt or will deal with this scenario: your boss, client or designer thinks the outline applied by browsers on focused elements does not match the UI, and asks you to remove it. Or you might even be looking to remove it yourself.
So you do a little research and find...
The Popeye Moment
25.11.2019
Frank Chimero is redesigning "in the open" and we should pay attention to it because (1) we should listen to anything Frank has to say because he's a great designer and writer and (2) working in public is awesome.
But the gut punch for me in this opening article is the way Frank pulls zero punches...
Learn UI Design
14.11.2019
Erik Kennedy's course Learn UI Design is open for enrollment for less than a week. Disclosure, that link is our affiliate link. I'm linking to it here because I think this is worthy of your time and money if you're looking to become a good UI designer.
I think of Erik sorta like the Wes Bos...
Making an Audio Waveform Visualizer with Vanilla JavaScript
12.11.2019
As a UI designer, I’m constantly reminded of the value of knowing how to code. I pride myself on thinking of the developers on my team while designing user interfaces. But sometimes, I step on a technical landmine.
A few years ago, as the design director of wsj.com, I was helping to re-design...

9.8.2019
Architektonický designér Honglin Li představil velice ambiciózní záměr. Chce zbavit svět tzv. Velké tichomořské odpadkové skvrny (Great Pacific Garbage Patch), a to tím, že v jejím středu vybuduje něco na způsob mrakodrapu.
Monumentální konstrukce zvaná Filtration, kterou navrhl, je inspirována
Zdog
24.7.2019
David DeSandro has loads of super cool JavaScript libraries he's created over the years. His latest is Zdog, a "round, flat, designer-friendly pseudo-3D engine for canvas & SVG." It's only been about a month since he dropped it (although, like any good library, it's been simmering) and it...
The (Developer’s) Growth Model
29.6.2019
I really like the post "The Designer’s Growth Model" by Dennis Hambeukers. Dennis just invented this model, but it's based on some existing ideas and it all rings true for me. Let me try to summarize the five stages as he lays them out for designers.
Producers: You learn how to design. You learn...

Using DevTools to Improve the UX Design to Development Process
7.6.2019
I’d like to tell you how I see code and design intersect and support one another. Specifically, I want to cover how designers can use code in their everyday work. I suggest this not because it’s a required skill, but because even a baseline understanding of coding can make designs better and...
Convert Video to Grayscale
24.4.2019
I’m a JavaScript fanatic but I’ve always been fascinated with media manipulation. Maybe it’s because I’ve secretly always wanted to be a designer, but I’m fine with being able to manipulate art with software instead of create the art myself. One type of art I’ve...
Add Animations to React Apps with React-Lottie

So your designer just came up with an amazing new animation on Adobe After Effects for your web application, fantastic! Just one problem, how do you convert this to a format usable within your web
Animate a Blob of Text with SVG and Text Clipping
6.2.2019
I came across this neat little animation in a designer newsletter — unfortunately, I lost track of the source, so please give a shout out if you recognize it! In it, a block of text appears to bleed into view with a swirl of colors, then goes out the same way it came in. It’s a slick effect and...
Reader Mode: The Button to Beat
7.1.2019
As a young nerd, I loved to immerse myself in digital worlds, learning the ins and outs of the rules someone else had created for me (intentionally or not). But the older and crankier I get, the more I find myself losing patience when navigating these "delightful" experiences.
This fascination...
