Today Hex is introducing the boldest redesign in the history of software. As agents transform software, everyone is questioning the role of UX. Will it all become vibe-coded slop? Or will it simply disappear? At Hex, design is the heart of everything we do – and we believe in beautiful UI as much as ever. Today we're introducing a preview of Pure Glass – a new language that evolves our UI, replacing harsh borders with frosted edges, and harsh contrast with clear translucency. No one asked for this – but we're doing it anyway, and are so excited to unleash this on our users this coming fall.
