I help companies and founders build their products. I tackle technology, design, and communication. I often say the things others won’t say out loud.
Webflow friends, have you come across a design element on a website recently and don’t know how to build it? Share it with me and I’ll try to recreate it and share it back!

It took 4.5 years for over 355k developers to implement the icon library I created as a side project.
And this great number was surpassed in just the last 6 months (+414k).
This year, we’re heading for 1 million installations. With a bit of luck, we won’t have to wait long for the next million.

It's clear that no-code platforms like Webflow are moving toward collaborative design tools. Conversely, tools like Figma are heading in a no-code direction. There's a race to build a self-sufficient tool where you can both design and launch the final product.

Protective glass optimized for AI. Glass manufacturers obviously understand the future better than Apple.
How much do you think such a buzzword will boost sales?

Best health tracking app? By default, Apple Health for Apple users and "Google Fit" for Android folks. But if anyone knows something better, let’s hear it 🙂

Sad fact: The average IT guy and not just him sits for 10+ hours a day. This isn't a hate, it's a statistic. So if someone tells you to stand up today, it's not bullying, it's prevention 😀✌️

According to available data, in 1913 the average life expectancy in developed countries was around 45–50 years. The low average was mainly caused by high child mortality. A hundred years later, we’re talking about almost a doubling. Today, in the developed world, people commonly live beyond 80.

We know that the end of VOS, also known as the Wellbeing App, is going to be tough for its millions of users. We're all wondering where we'll track next. I think Tibio App could be the way to go! 💜

I tested the AI tools Lovable and Firebase Studio. And for a non-programmer, Lovable is clearly leading so far. The outputs are more complex, but as a programmer I wouldn't want this and would rather have more control over the output which is what FS allows me to do.

Due to health reasons, I have to go on a keto diet for an extended period of time. I have been following it for almost two months and it is still a constant battle with my head. But I don't drool 🤤 so much when I walk past sweets 🍰.

I thought that in Webflow form it's not possible to prefill automatically from which page user filled it. Perplexity convinced me in a simple and elegant way that it is possible. I am still learning new things 💁♂️

We all have tons of subscription services, but a year is too long and even a month feels excessive. Why not offer a 1-day subscription model? Sometimes I just need a service for 2-3 days a month. Paying a full month makes no sense. Who’ll be the first to make this happen?

Bluesky, it doesn't have to have the most users. The important thing is to have a quality user base. That's the reason why I am here.

So we will soon have another browser (Dia), this time with fully integrated AI that interacts with the content. It seems like browsers are proliferating lately.

The accessibility wasn’t perfect, but now there’s nothing search engines could struggle with. Curious if this will impact positioning. Focus now is on reducing JS/CSS size, but that’ll be challenging. Can anyone confirm if the last 7% is worth it? 🧐

Google has killed almost 300 projects, as you can see here: killedbygoogle.com. I think I’ll make my own list since it’s quite long. Or maybe share unrealized ideas or domains with ideas but no time. 😅

Websites designed to answer user questions face a challenge.
Yesterday, I attended a lecture by a representative of a search engine as dominant in my country as Google. They're massively implementing AI, just like Google. The general trend in search engines? Summarizing content in search results.
