old me: 100% of designing in code was on top of production new me: 95% of designing is in one-off HTML prototypes ⇢ only build on prod when I know exactly what I want to build

👀 @jamesm is one of my favorite visual designers on the planet but now he's transitioned into a full-blown builder with Claude so this week's episode is a behind-the-scenes of how he builds stunning websites👇 youtube.com/watch?v=IStiszvY…

As more and more designers move into Design Engineering, here are some commonly used overlay terms that help you describe your UI to Claude or Codex more precisely. Save this for later.

Our 2026 Design in AI Report is now live! This report is the culmination of thousands of people hours and many late nights to create what we believe is the most comprehensive, well-researched report capturing and synthesizing the state of Design + AI today. While we used AI in many areas, a report like this still required deep thinking, grit, and humans coming together to do what they do best. The final report spans nearly 20k words covering the survey results of over 900 people paired with dozens of qualitative interviews. Over the coming months we will also release 7 beautiful case studies showing how top design teams are working on the ground featuring designers at @AnthropicAI, @framer, @linear, @NotionHQ, @Shopify, @SierraPlatform, and @stripe. This work is a true labor of love to help guide a design community we hold so dear. Link in the comments and please let us know what you think. Your feedback helps us shape how we will evolve this work over the coming years...

I joined @charliprangley's Inside Marketing Design podcast to talk about how we think and work at @linear. • Why marketing is packaging design • Storytelling vs. content marketing • How we built the Linear homepage → youtube.com/watch?v=C5KighUa…
