I was thinking about the Idea because you see "build in public" projects do very well. But they are all about building online, right? I am about to acquire a piece of land in the mountains, and my goal is to build a nice hideaway, cabin/tiny house style. Would you follow this journey? All from ...

Recently I really struggle. I usually have only 45-60minutes of the free time for working on anything side-project related. It’s hard with doing activities with family and wife (I don’t have kids). Usually I start solving problems and then I need to switch to doing something else.  It’s super har...

I'm not sure if you're aware of shadcn/ui and Aceternity UI. These two just made my day. The components are easy to use, beautiful to look at, and completely free. I'm very new to frontend dev, and still I've been able to create a pretty good portfolio page using provided components very similar ...

To spot fellow WIP'ers in the wild

I'm working on a new project for a "No code/Webflow" job board. So playing a bit with concepts in Canva I made these logos mostly for social media and marketing. https://twitter.com/idgm5/status/1236349217360302081 Any feedback would be awesome!

Quite often it's challenging to find what you are looking for during a design process. Are there any sites that you refer to whenever you need a design asset, article, or inspiration? Or do you just Google?

It took me a while to understand but good colors make the project look a lot better than one with poor design. Nowadays I am checking out Coolors & Colour Hunt for Inspiration. How do you choose your colors for next project?

I’m creating an annual report that documents real-life, current statistics on service providers’ websites to create an accessible reference tool for people who want to build their business off social media. For this, I’m defining service providers as freelancers (like web devs, designers, writer...

Recently I am seeing a lot of SAAS grow & I am thinking of launching one as a side project. It can be one off like whole automation thing that I make once & forget & it makes me money or it can be something that I have to keep updated like Web or Mobile Templates. As this group has a lot of maker...

Title says it all, but we've got CS college, Graphic design college, online courses, tutors, learning on the job, boot camps. And these all have tradeoffs and timelines. How would you respond if someone asked you the best way to learn how to design and build web applications?

I feel like Trello is getting more and more bloated. What are the features that make Trello good, what do you actually use? - Simple Kanban - Add multiple boards - Add members to boards - What else?

I'm working on NameIgniter.com, a domain name suggestion tool. While it functions well, the design is unattractive. This is probably a question more for developers than designers: Do you have any tips on designing websites that look good? I love minimalist websites, but mine feels both minimalist...

When you visite a website before or after an interaction, where do you leave your cursor? Me, it's on the right in the middle of my screen and you?

I'm hesitant to go straight to AI with this, so reaching out to my network... I'd like to make some brand (including logo) updates to #railsmarket and I could use some recommendations on how you'd proceed with this. Going to end up doing a site redesign after this, but want to start with brandi...

Hey everyone 👋 I've been trying to upload all the images on my website as .svg. All were made in Figma. The weird thing is that my logo uploaded fine but the "News from" section and the hero image on the left are not working. I'm using Carrd.co as the host/editor and funnily enough, these pics ...

A lot of startups, also the ones here, start with a problem they solve by building a product. And that can and will go perfect for a period. For the long term and deeper connection, a sort of branding, is important. Especially when there are more solutions in the operating field. I am looking fo...

I'm coming back to the freelancing game after some time building other businesses, and I used to get a lot of content writing clients on Twitter circa 2009. But now Twitter is X and there's a whole ~thing~ with it, and it's kind of a dumpster fire. So, this one is for the freelancers (bonus if ...
