Zero experience in the UI design industry.
But creativity, imagination, AI, and @Wonder made it possible.
🔥 Introducing "TourMe"
🧠 The idea:
A website for people who love to travel, explore, and discover different countries.
🙌 Problem:
People often have to jump between multiple websites to find travel information about a country they want to visit.
😊 Solution:
A website with multiple features for different countries:
• Weather
• Currency
• Best places to visit
• Popular restaurants
• Traditional foods
• Hotels and places to stay
• Activities
• sim cards
• and many more
💯 WORKFLOW:
• Explained my idea in ChatGPT and generated a prompt
• Used Wonder Chat to create UI concepts and website designs
• Refined everything manually using Wonder's tools and AI features
• Used Shader, Wonder Chat, Properties, and other tools
• Used Figma templates as references
• Explored different Wonder features and workflows
• Generated images using Wonder Chat
• Used Opus and Fable for generation
🙌 Others:
• Uploaded webpage screenshots and used Wonder Chat to recreate similar layouts
• Used Pinterest for inspiration and images
🎉 Wonder MCP:
• Connected Wonder MCP with Claude
• Claude helped create parts of the website
• Used GitHub to publish the website
TourMe Website:

Wonder File (Check page 1 and Page 2):
https://app.wonder.so/angelo-pacaanas/files/019f21e1-b614-7ae0-96ce-16e3fb4f1b80
🧠 UNEXPECTED:
• I didn't expect copying designs from Figma to Wonder to be so easy
• There are many Shader modes to choose from
• Prompt-to-UI worked even without UI design experience
• Wonder MCP worked smoothly with Claude
• Wonder Chat is more than a UI generator—it also helps answer questions and guide ideas
• Multiple image generation models are available (my favorite is Nano Banana)
• Easy to move, edit, and rearrange elements
• Lots of useful tools that are simple to learn and use
We all want @Contra HQ to have a mobile app, right? This is how I would approach it! 😉
Great work
I built a new website for a local wine testing place called Weingut Wailand. It's a family winery & Buschenschank on the Kahlenberg in Vienna 🍷
They had a website but very outdated, and there was no reservation system, no contact form, Only could leave review on Google.
So I built a complete solution for them.
What's inside:
- DE/EN with instant language switch
- Live open/closed status of their location
- Wine catalog + guest reviews
- Smart reservation system with email alerts
- Contact form with auto-reply
- Secure admin dashboard
- Fully responsive + SEO-optimized
From vineyard to web. 🌱🍇
