It’s 3AM and I just recreated Apple Liquid Metal right in the browser. No JavaScript. No WebGL. Just raw HTML + CSS. Let me know if you want the code

I needed a dithering effect for some project photos, but none of the available tools were cutting it. So, I built my own! It only took a couple of hours, and I’m pretty proud of the result

I finally sat down and rewrote Displace for Figma from the ground up. It’s super fast, with a completely new set of effects, and now it can export filter code you can paste right into your site! Sooooon

Was just messing around in Figma, trying to mock up a shockwave / sonic boom effect two hours later… I vibecoded a whole plugin that does exactly that and nothing else 😅 funny how you can go from “let me try this real quick” to “guess I’m writing tools now” without even noticing
