most companies underutilize designers.

designers should design the product.

not the ui, not the pixels. the product.

@ThePeej I'm waiting to see the non-Pro version.

I just watched GPT-4 turn a hand-drawn sketch into a functional website.

This is insane.

@owltastic @css Design tokens are pretty neat if you haven't checked them out yet.

@oQuarterback @SBJ Aqui no Canada a assinatura do DAZN dá acesso ao NFL Game Pass. Acho uma boa porque em uma única assinatura posso assistir NFL, boxe e futebol europeu.

@oQuarterback No Canadá é comum ir em jogo com arquibancada assim. Pessoal já é acostumado a tirar a neve e levam sempre algo pra sentar em cima.

@marceloeduardo I can only imagine the life of social media managers trying to keep up.

[Manoel dos Santos @manoeldossantos]

@ThePeej @MKBHD I'd even go as far as to ask why show it like screens at all? Why not display only the windows? I guess it's like you said, skeuomorphism helps with affordance early on. I bet that with time all this will go away.

@sweetTorqueri @felipe_yyc Você tem que usar os atalhos de teclado apropriados para navegar pelo conteúdo. Tab apenas navega pelos elementos interativos. Nunca usei o ChromeVox, mas no VoiceOver você usa as setas do teclado e ctrl + seta para pular entre seções. Dá uma lida nas instruções.

Have you read about the new focus criteria that will be coming in #WCAG 2.2? You might think these are not meeting the Understandable principle. Fortunately, there's this easy-to-understand article. Thanks, @SaraSoueidan: https://t.co/Ddjwo1Ofwo
