I see Liquid Glass everywhere but the problem is everyone’s created a sphere and that’s it. I prefer to create systems. I’ve Vibecoded the full-fledged cpu based universal Liquid Glass design system that works on every browser and device , getting closer and closer to the official iOS 26 one. Still working in progress before a full release.

It’s absolutely MENTAL how iOS 26 renders the Liquid Glass effect DURING the app opening and closing animation. It renders the glass effects, motion AND stretching of the app in the new animation system. What kind of black magic is going on at Apple?! 😭

It’s clear that the “full page” screenshot tool was never tested properly in Liquid Glass The ✔️ disappeared (it’s hiding behind the drop down menu) And the whole thing is jittery Many such interfaces in iOS 26
