I often run into situations were folks don't really know what a design system is. We assume everyone is talking about #designSystems but this is just our bubble.

If someone you know needs an intro, this article is great to get started: https://buff.ly/2LlWT2d

We wanted to make this one as simple and helpful as possible. With a generous free tier we will gently say “heads up!” before you inadvertently commit your aws key to your public repo.

Maybe it is over-designing or maybe it is just designing given buttons are we interact with the most
My guilty pleasure: over-designing buttons and then over-engineering them with TailwindCSS to be pixel perfect...

But don't ask me about that code... 🫠

The Mac OS Control Panel by Susan Kare is such a remarkable UI. It was designed in 1984 without any text labels and fits in only 315x158 pixels.

That bring back memories. Just like today you are not sure this particular emoji will be displayed on every OS we were not sure about that particular color back in the days.
Who remembers web-safe colors?

In the early web days, there were only 216 colors blessed as "web-safe" -- you could expect them to look correct on all displays.

It was extremely limiting for design!

If you've ever noticed the "Only Web Colors" checkbox in Photoshop, it's a holdover from this.
