They did use 3D models and we can fly through the scenes and check it all out!

iPadOS 26 feeling more pointer optimized than for actual fingers is the real downgrade

You can now design directly in your codebase.

Select elements, modify them visually, and Cursor writes the code.

Loved the behind-the-scenes look at @mds process and seeing how to use vibe-coding to create on-the-fly tooling and talk through his thinking.

A few other points that really stuck with me:
• Go deep on fundamentals (esp. type) so you know why you’re making the decisions you make. Lots of juniors I've seen lately don't yet understand the why
• If you have fun with your work it will show. The same applies to sterile energy you get from pressures and deadlines.
• Learn how to pronounce “Neue” 😅
• Push things too far sometimes just to see what happens
• Think of keywords to define your vision and stay anchored to them

@felixleezd This is just the unfortunate reality of design in business, rarely will people wait for you to perfect your design because they just don't care as much as you do. Get good at being fast or learn to be okay with the output within the given timelines.

There is something about negative user feedback that makes it always so interesting and fun to read

Finding accessible colours has to be one of my favourite ways to use ChatGPT for a design workflow
