🤿 design's github moment

the coming shift in design tools

Imagine a world where handoff no longer exists and designers are moving fluidly in code…

Drew Wilson is one of the people pulling that future into the present so this week’s episode is a deep dive into his vision for the new design tool Opacity.

Some highlights:

  • How team structures are changing

  • How to stand out when everyone is a builder

  • What design’s “Github moment” will look like

  • The fracturing of the market for design talent

  • How Drew is approaching this startup differently

  • Where the new technical threshold is for designers

  • + a lot more

🤝 WITH MOBBIN

Every time I think I understand the depths of Mobbin I realize I’ve barely scratched the surface…

Like earlier today we were in a live design session and in a single search found the exact transition we wanted to reference 🤯

And I just learned Mobbin has curated iOS pages for dynamic islands, widgets, even live activities.

It is truly the ultimate source of design inspiration and I use it constantly in my practice so I can’t recommend it enough.
