Working on some UI enhancements to Limelight inspired by Liquid Glass. I use Flutterflow to build this app. A little more tweaking to do, but this is as close as I can get to Liquid Glass, notably the search bar at the bottom of the page. #BuildInPublic

Spent the last two weeks getting away from the day-to-day work life. But, I'm back, and ready to hit the ground running. Some epic shots from the vacation.

A bit of design inspiration from Teenage Engineering. Hard to believe these are actual products you can buy. Incredible.

📱 Weekly App Spotlight: Overcast

Overcast is my go-to podcast player that I’ve been using for ten years. One of my favorite features is Smart Speed, which intelligently shortens silences between words without distorting the audio. I've saved 240 hours of listening time thanks to this feature alone.
