A year and a half in NYC. The amazing friends I made have all moved away over time, chasing bigger dreams (SF, SK, SG…). But at the same time, I keep getting messages from new, interesting, aspiring people asking to hang out and connect, which is something I never experienced in London. How amazing is it that people here are so open to meeting and becoming friends.

Chatting with someone about my work today. While I was prepared to show all the cool complex devtool workflows in my recent professional years, he asked me about my design for @LockcardApp - the very beginning project that got me into design.
I opened the Figma file from two years ago - all that visual exploration, all that craft. No AI design tools then. Every weird little decision was mine. It feels fresh, unruly, human.

Inspiring💜

一般产品做到我自己很想拍视频分享，那就差不多了

@loredanacrisan So amazed to see all the new features! Great judgement and taste behind. Congrats

[Xinyi Fu @shirlxfu]

I quick thought watching #config AI design output shouldn’t be a finished effect applied to the artifact. It should be a set of rich controls you can play with yourself. In the end, design is an exploration for thinking and feeling. AI gives its best take, and the human plays.

[Xinyi Fu @shirlxfu]

I’m surprised that more AI design tools don’t have features like DialKit (I found Claude Design tweaks not useful at all💀)

[joshpuckett @joshpuckett]

DialKit 1.3 is live!

- Stable IDs for sharing DialKit state across pages
- Persistent values, presets, and panel state
- Programmatic getters and setters
- Multiple DialKit instances now combine into one panel
- Bug fixes and perf improvements

こんな文字列、コンピューターの世界で誰が使うのか、何のために存在するのかと思いきや、テキストのスクランブルな演出に役立てていて、センス良すぎと思いました。＞Anime.js

Good morning!

The Pen Tool is live in Paper

Draw shapes, generate SVGs, or vectorize images, and edit the points and paths.

Paper uses real SVGs so exports are 1:1, no surprises.

The new SVG workflow: create → refine → ship.

Try it out! And show us what you draw.

@charlieholtz yes but maybe not this hot pink purple🥹

Manga like this reminds me of the very starting point of my pursuit for arts and craft, which leads me to my career in design. #天上の弦

Rainy long weekend in NYC = me + Claude + p5.js making it rain on my wip new website 🌧️

[Xinyi Fu @shirlxfu]

second honeymoon with NYC and I thought I was finally becoming a New Yorker - dragged out of bed at 2:30am by a friend for emotional support, and 5 days later, he told me he’s “exclusive” with someone new. while my ex used to say I need to stop living in the past - he meant last month. maybe I’m just not built for this city🤷🏻‍♀️

Last week was my 4 YOE as a designer. What I started to think about every day:

- How do I get stakeholders genuinely bought into my design opinions?
- How do I get collaborators to listen to my plan and delegation?
- And always: how do I apply my craft to sth seemingly unsexy
