Design Engineering Tip If your modal scrolls like this, you’re probably missing one CSS property: overscroll-behavior: contain; It prevents the page behind the modal from scrolling when users reach the top or bottom.

Design Engineering Tip: If your whole page shifts 15px the moment a modal opens, it isn't the modal. It's the scrollbar disappearing, because the library sets overflow: hidden on the body to lock scrolling. Reserve the space before you ever need it: html { scrollbar-gutter: stable; }

your modal scrolls. your page scrolls too. that’s scroll chaining. put 𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚘𝚕𝚕-𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚝𝚊𝚒𝚗 on the scrollable part of the modal and the background won't scroll with your modal

Design Engineering Tip: One CSS property is responsible for most ugly expand animations. It’s height: auto. Replace it with: grid-template-rows: 0fr → 1fr;

This CSS unit is quietly ruining your website's mobile experience. In mobile, "vh" doesn't account for the browser's address bar so the bottom of your page gets cut off. Even worse if you have a bottom right action button since users won't even know it's there. The "svh" unit fixes it: .page { min-height: 100svh; } If you found this one useful, follow for more! ❤️

Design Engineering Tip: Add friction at the end of a scroll interaction. When users reach the edge of a scrollable area, the movement should not just stop instantly. A subtle resistance, bounce, or slowdown can make the interface feel more physical and less mechanical. It helps users understand that they reached a boundary without needing extra labels or visual indicators. Used carefully, this can make scrolling feel more natural and closer to how objects behave in the real world.

Design Engineering Tip Consider letting textareas grow with the content instead of introducing nested scrolling. It often creates a smoother writing experience and keeps forms easier to scan. CSS: textarea { field-sizing: content; }

Design Engineering Tip: If your UI has a draggable split view, don’t make users land on perfect proportions by hand. Add sensible snap points—25 / 50 / 75—and let the handle gently settle on release. Users get precision when they need it, and a calmer interface when they don’t.

Fixed this small bug in Linear’s app today which I often see in other apps as well. Here’s a small before/after. The issue: When you open a popover inside a modal (think a custom select), clicking outside the popover to close it also closes the modal. The desired behavior is to close the select on click outside while keeping the modal open. This often happens because custom dropdowns or select components are rendered in a portal. The modal then treats the interaction as an outside click because, technically, the dropdown isn’t inside the modal in the DOM, it’s rendered elsewhere via a portal. The fix depends on your setup, whether it’s Radix/Base UI, fully custom etc. But since you now know the cause of it, you can ask your agent to fix it for you!

Design Engineering Tip: If you’re using the same corner radius across your entire UI, try scaling it with the component size: 12px → XS (buttons, tags) 16px → S (cards, inputs) 24px → M (modals, panels) As components get larger, increasing the radius can help preserve the same visual softness and balance.

I think Campsite had some of the most elegant UI on the web, especially for modal dialogs, but it was all React components rendering <div>s inside <div>s. So I stole their design and rebuilt it with semantic HTML and CSS. 😅

design engineering is the best seat in tech right now. you design it and you ship it. if you're learning, start here: - a library on designing with care - UI patterns reference - the best essay on the craft - design skills your agent installs - the details most people miss - everything SVG, explained - design principles, applied I post stuff like this often. follow Imran.

I think the theory about men knowing you’re “the one” from the start is so true. When you’re truly the one, they don’t play about you, your happiness, or your well-being. There are no mixed signals or confusion, only respect, boundaries and consistency.
