What am I missing?
"how are your designs so good?"
spacing.
you have no idea how much bad spacing is killing your work. get obsessive about it and your designs will look completely different overnight.
Since Opus 4.8 is out and more and more designers are getting into Design Engineering, I thought I’d share some of the interaction patterns I use most often:
Use proximity, not just hover. When the cursor gets close, nearby elements can subtly scale and darken based on distance.
It makes interfaces feel more responsive, less binary, and way more alive
onpointermove = e =>
document.querySelectorAll(".dock>*").forEach(el => {
const r = el.getBoundingClientRect();
const t = Math.max(0, 1 - Math.abs(e.clientX - r.x - r.width/2) / 120);
el. style.scale = 1 + t * .5;
});

Tailwind CSS colors are 🔥 But designing accessible components can be tricky due to inconsistent contrast.
For example, yellow 500/50 isn't as strong as indigo 500/50.
