For the first time ever, I built a site for myself instead of for clients or employers! For years I maintained a giant spreadsheet of Pacific Northwest triathlon events for the Seattle Triathlon Group. I finally ditched the spreadsheet and built tri-northwest.com If you know my Analytics Dashboards, you'll probably recognize the vibe: information-packed single page design that gets you what you need fast!
What I Built
Interactive map showing every triathlon in the PNW (color-coded by month)
Smart filters for race types, locations, and dates
Live RSS feed pulling latest news from Slowtwitch, Triathlete, and Triathlon Magazine
Mobile-first design that actually works on your phone
The Stack using Vibe coding!
TanStack, Tailwind CSS, Pigeon Maps for OpenStreetMap
Hosted: Vercel's hobby tier!

Google Stitch — A Designer's Honest Take (Part 2/2)
Last time I covered what works. Now the honest part. 👇
❌ The Gaps
UI output quality isn't groundbreaking
Other platforms aren't far behind, and their outputs are more immediately usable beyond just visuals. Stitch only generates UI, the HTML/CSS export exists, but it's basic and not production-ready.
So who is this actually for?
Stitch isn't trying to replace designers, and it's not quite ready to hand developers production code either. It sits in a sweet spot: rapid ideation with a real design system behind it.
If you're a freelance designer, this shaves hours off early-stage concepting and client presentations. If you're a developer hoping to skip the design phase entirely — not yet.
Threat? No.
Tool? Yes, if you know where to use it.
Google Stitch — A Designer's Honest Take (Part 1/2)
Google just launched an AI design tool. But is it actually useful for designers, or just another pretty demo?
I tested it. Here's what genuinely impressed me. 👇

Part 2 coming — where Stitch falls short. 👀
This breakdown is so useful. The sectional edit feature alone makes it worth testing
