Building smart tools for faster, better UI work

[Erik @erikdevries_nl]

I first published my Figma plugin in 2023.

Spent a lot of time improving it in 2025…

And now it has passed 100,000 installs 🥳

Really cool to see something you built become part of other people’s workflow.

Did it!

Published the Figma plugin I’ve wanted for 5 years.

🎨 Create / adjust your custom color scale
⚡️ Figma variables update in real-time

So now you can test your custom color scale instantly on real designs!

@meodai We stayed near Taormina in 2016 and loved driving up to the small mountain village of Savoca for dinner. We ate at a restaurant with an incredible view. Can’t remember the name, but the food was excellent!

@jamesm Nice, thanks!

I've been adding a lot of extra design examples in the past weeks/months. Landing page, dashboard, mobile apps, shadcn/ui components etc.

Let me know if you think something feels missing or off.

Great read on tiny design details

This icon animation tweak feels so nice!

@_heyrico Honest question: What is the purpose of the wireframe?

@azizi_zr Hi! I just replied to your email

[Erik @erikdevries_nl]

If you struggle picking colors for a website, I’ve got something...

Paste ANY color and this entire landing page will just look good.

• Generates a 10-color Tailwind palette
• Picks the right shade for every element
• Adapts to light + dark mode
• Keeps contrast accessible (APCA)

Try any color: https://t.co/DOTDNyARN6

@Mike_Andreuzza Not exactly the same, but I came across something similar https://t.co/ZeuwGalJ7J

[espresso Displays @espressodisplay]

Introducing espresso 15 Pro. The best display, just got brighter.

@abdul_uxui Thanks! There is... https://t.co/Fnv5Pf94Nv

I visualized all Tailwind CSS colors on real UI components.

Let me know if you have any ideas for other design elements you would like to see the Tailwind Colors applied to :)

@levelsio I feel the same about motivation. The more I just do things, the more I get motivated. Instead of just waiting to get motivated.

@angeloldesigns This is insane, great job!

[Erik @erikdevries_nl]

@vanschneider Same here. I love working late, especially from 10 PM to 1 AM when everything is quiet.

Gets easier again when the kids grow older :)

[Erik @erikdevries_nl]

Just added logo examples to UI Colors.

Makes experimenting with logo color combinations across multiple scales a lot faster!

@Mike_Andreuzza I see. And Cloudflare (pages?) is basically free?
