I was able to give Cursor the screenshot and ask it where to make the changes. It pointed me to the component's desktop and mobile versions.
I added the text, modified the styling a bit, and pushed the branch up to Github.
No Figma needed.

We needed to add some descriptive text to this dialog. It's a simple change but one that is often difficult to prioritize because it doesn't seem worth distracting developers from larger tasks.

So much data to display. Still refining and looking for ways to eliminate ink on the screen.

Glad I bought a stupidly expensive Studio Display so I have a stupidly expensive thunderbolt cable to run migration assistant to my reasonably expensive new MacBook Pro

Fed my avatar to Apple Image Playground and it gave me a full head of grey hair (too soon!).
So I added strawberry blonde hair as a description and, well…

Working on this object map to help clarify the system.
But in my experience, stakeholders' eyes glaze over with these types of artifacts. They typically don't understand it until they see it in a UI.

Decided to ditch Arc as my default because it feels bad to keep investing time into a browser that's no longer being developed. Forgot about this insane dark pattern of gating features when it's not the default.

Designing with AI can feel like collaborating with a co-worker. I can give it rough ideas and see what it generates.
This UI needs work, but it only took 15 seconds, allowing for quick iterations. It's a different direction than I imagined, but I’ll incorporate some of these ideas.

I don't have any magic prompting formulas. I just tend to say what I'm trying to do in plain language...haha
Claude Artifacts are great for smaller projects. It will create a little React app for you. And then it's just a process of telling it what to change over and over again.

Wireframing with Claude or Cursor allows me to create realistic prototypes and iterate through ideas just as easily and quickly as writing this post.
Makes figma wireframes feel much less useful.

It's so much easier to spin up decent mock data in cursor than having to type everything out in figma. And it helps prevent the bias towards only using clean looking data in mocks.

Building a fully functional front-end prototype in Cursor increases the quality of customer feedback by an order of magnitude over figma with a few happy paths wired up.
With AI, building a fully functional prototype might take less time than a barely functional figma.
