Hero Image Prerender Case Study - Figma and Claude Code - Part 1

For quite some time I've been chasing the same idea. Design something in Figma, push it to the front-end, iterate, push back. A clean loop. No context lost. No "it looked different in Figma" conversations. Simple enough in theory. A bit of a nightmare in practice.

Prototyping Fast, Fixing Slow: AI for UX Design

P

For quite some time I’ve been messing around with different AI design tools, and recently I came across the State of AI-assisted Software Development 2025 report.

What do you fight for in mobile payments?

W

FinTech is very competitive and dynamic environment. Developing a mobile payment application  is like a never ending fight. A picture that pops to my mind at the beginning is two guys punching each other but to be honest, there are more opponents here and you don’t know where the hit comes from. So the question arises how can you ensure that your product gets the best User Experience? What...
