I built an archive of things that quietly stopped being everyday...
The phone I used to call a classmate on to ask what our homework was, because there was no other way to find out. The Tamagotchi I wanted badly as a child and never got. The camera you took photos with and then waited months to see whether any of them had come out at all.
I created this archive to bring these objects back into our memories, reflect on what they meant to us, and show them to a new generation that has never dialled a number with their finger or waited months to see a photograph.
I designed the project in Flowstep, then used the Flowstep MCP to bring it into Claude and turn it into a real, working webpage. I also tested copying screens between Flowstep and Figma with a simple Ctrl+C → Ctrl+V, and it worked perfectly.
Such a creative idea! ✨
This brought back so many memories. I love the idea of preserving these everyday objects and the stories behind them before they're forgotten. It's nostalgic, meaningful, and something people of different generations can connect with😍
Such a nostalgic concept💯

Introducing KEEPS: A Digital Home for Physical Memories
KEEPS is a mobile app designed to preserve the physical objects that carry our memories.
While most memory apps are built around photos, KEEPS is built around everything else.
Concert tickets, boarding passes, receipts, handwritten notes, invitations, conference badges, and other small objects that people often keep long after their practical purpose has ended.
The idea came from a simple observation: many of us keep these items because they represent experiences, relationships, milestones, and moments we don’t want to forget. Over time, they become scattered across drawers, wallets, books, and boxes, making them difficult to revisit and easy to lose.
KEEPS transforms these physical keepsakes into digital artifacts.
Users can scan real objects, remove backgrounds, add contextual information such as location, date, people, and personal notes, and organize them into custom collections. Artifacts can also be created from templates, allowing users to recreate memories that no longer exist physically.
The prototype includes onboarding, collections, artifact detail pages, discovery flows, creation flows, profile experiences, and a connected navigation system that allows users to move through their archive naturally.
Rather than generating the entire product in a single prompt, I used Flowstep as a design engineering tool.
I started with a visual direction created in Figma, including custom illustrations, typography, layout systems, and the overall structure.
From there, I rebuilt the product inside Flowstep screen by screen, using detailed prompts to define hierarchy, spacing, interactions, navigation patterns, and user flows.
Each screen became the foundation for the next. Existing components were reused, refined, and expanded to create a cohesive design system across the entire application. The process was highly iterative: generating, reviewing, refining, and rebuilding until the product felt consistent both visually and functionally.
The result is not simply a collection of screens, but a connected prototype with clear user journeys, interaction logic, and product intent.
KEEPS is built around a simple belief:
The smallest objects often carry the biggest memories.

Love this!

More time to build, more time to win 💸
Hello everyone I'm Prem, and this is ORBIT, my entry for the Flowstep.ai Challenge.
We all lose touch with friends we loved from school, from college. Nobody's fault. Life gets busy, and by the time you notice, it's been years.
Losing a friend isn't a decision you make; it's something you find out about, long after it happened. Everyone means to react out . Nothing reminds you that you haven't.
So I built the thing that keeps track. In Orbit you're the sun, and your friends are planets orbiting you. How far out a planet sits is how long you've been quiet. Tanmay hasn't heard from me in 212 days, so he's stopped moving he's asleep, with little z's floating off him.
The distance isn't decoration, the picture is the data. Your glance at your galaxy.
And it doesn't nudge you to "check in." It gives you a reason: her show opens Friday, and you saved her flyer in March. You send a Shooting Star, she replies, her orbit pulls back in.
It never reads what you wrote. It only notices that you talked.
I connected Flowstep to Claude Code over MCP and drove the whole build from my terminal. Loading my design system in as Flowstep's design guidelines first is what made 21 screens feel like one product. Then I put it live, so it's a real app you can use.
Send someone a shooting star and see what comes back 😊 .
