The @figmadesign design-to-code plugin that provides an in-app html/style preview for you to check off before exporting into one tidy *.zip file. https://t.co/e6pJ0SMndt

@swyx@tailwindcss And the best part of that kind of concise exposure? You can take that knowledge OUTSIDE of tailwind if you want to. I can take the knowledge I’ve gained on flex box and add it to a separate non-tailwind project and it works. That’s just how good they’ve made it.
@swyx@tailwindcss I discovered it about 2 months ago and I’ve been 🤯 ever since.
One of the major “sealing the deal” features of tailwind is that it exposes you to immensely useful css concepts/strategies in an easy to understand context when combined with their stellar documentation. 💯
@florinpop17 Find a space/niche in automating the most manual parts of design to development.
Make the by products of said venture standalone SaaS for double leverage. If you like product A, you’ll most like buy product B (synergy)
Rinse and repeat till not viable.
I’m at repeat stage 😅
@swyx Valid to ask. I thought the last job was “the last job”, but everything has changed since the pandemic. Pragmatically I think I have one more “employer” left in the tank but I’m committing to launching two SaaS before I go back.
@florinpop17 Possible nightmare fuel question. By the time I like what I have at the end of the design process, I feel half the time before I’m bored is gone 😭
@swyx@tailwindcss I’m going to settle down and read this in detail. But Having used it in 3 projects and rewriting a plugin in tailwind it confirms what I already knew: I’m never going back.
Extra plus for the stellar developer adoption leadership (is that a thing?) they have put in their docs.
@swyx Pretty hard balance to do when one also has to hold out space for genuine belief in what they are doing.
However I’ve found that reality does a great job dispelling such a complex should they get to launch.
Success? Their ideas got validated. Silence? Complex dispelled
@swyx I have a subscription for premium features (like being able to preview what you select before exporting), but the endgame is autolayout support (responsive) and direct to framework export. But for now it's free
I have a proof of concept on the later here https://t.co/cBwEU7F2qm
@NehemiahKiv Google’s “Material You”. Companies are already spinning their own inspired take of the design system into their own products. Great leverage of trending events in the UI space in specific ways
@swyx Extra points for typing a fair size of code very quickly and then waiting for all the colors of the linting error rainbow to show before it realized that everything was Gucci from the get go.
Made an editor that customizes @bulmaio components and exports your customized work into javascript framework code! Built with @vuejs and @bulmaio
I'll be writing a multi-part series on how it was made, so follow for updates!

@Coding_Career@swyx Ok. So if for example I were to write an article about coding a web builder, it’s best to focus on how I personally tackled the challenges and my personal conclusions/advice instead of just compiling a set of articles?
