Posted to DesignSystems.com 2.0, in reply to Mattan Ingram , Apr 15, 2019 Posted to Redesigned Petal site, Oct 02, 2018 Anyone use Petal? Would be curious to hear how their service is compared to the big banks
Posted to Figma just got a lot faster , Sep 13, 2018 the Figma team ships at such an impressive rate.

Posted to Sponsor: Coordinate launches, plan new features, organize user research, and stay on the same page with Airtable, Apr 03, 2017 I really <3 airtable. Its one of the few products thats genuinely improved my workflow, and it looks great.
Posted to Dorkoy Themes - World's finest Bootstrap Themes, in reply to Zach Reed , Feb 28, 2017 Agree 100%. You can at least make it more difficult to steal by obfuscating the html, but no live demos is a killer.
Posted to Show DN: Linemotion (design agency portfolio), Sep 28, 2015 Awesome portfolio! Love the colors & interactions. One suggestion is maybe add the kind of backend/frontend work you do in case someone is looking for a specialist (PHP, Ruby, etc.)
Posted to ASK DN: What's your biggest accomplishment?, in reply to Michael Lee , May 13, 2014 If you dont mind me asking, what was your training regiment? Also, how tall are you?
Posted to How do you create a design culture?, Oct 15, 2013 Let people design things outside of their "normal scope of work". There is such an emphasis on developers working on open source projects to try new things, but I rarely see designers who get afforded the same luxury. If a designer can diversify their work, they can diversify their learning. Ultimately, that leads to a more well-rounded (and from my experience, a happier) designer.

Hey Mattan - couldn't agree more, and thats definitely coming. In fact - Im writing an article on building design systems for one that should be live on DesignSystems.com in the coming weeks.
Most of what I ship outside of Figma are smaller projects where I build scrappy design systems, usually combined with netlify + gulp, to get high quality work out the door fast.
