Project Title Stitch Playground

Created by: Diana D. (UX/UI Designer)

Intro I created "Stitch Playground" an interactive learning experience that helps Stitch users turn your rough interface ideas into clearer more useful prompts.

This project is designed for people who have an idea for an interface but are not sure how to get started in Stitch. Instead of simply telling users to “Write me better prompts,” Stitch Playground shows them how a vague request can become a stronger design brief by adding the right context: What the interface is, who it is for, how it should feel, what sections it needs, and what visual styles Stitch should follow.

The goal of my project was to make prompt writing feel easier, more approachable, and fun for Stitch users.

What I Built:

I built Stitch Playground in Stitch as a clean interactive experience that helps Stitch users get started easily.

What it includes:

A bold clean interactive landing page introducing Stitch Playground Motion design in the hero and footer (new Stitch features) A prompt-learning interactive component based on clearer design direction (Inspired by Vincent's Stitch prompting blog post) A before-and-after comparison showing how vague prompts become stronger Stitch prompts An interactive prompt builder for turning rough ideas into more complete prompt structures A prompt deconstructor concept for understanding what makes a prompt more useful A starter library of reusable prompt examples for dashboards, blogs, entertainment experiences, and portfolios

How I Used Stitch: I used Stitch as a creative partner to explore, shape, and refine the experience and ideas from a rough concept into a polished finalized experience.

The starting idea was simple: create a guide that helps people prompt Stitch better. From there, I used the Stitch workflow to think through the page structure, content sections, visual style, and interactive learning moments. The project became both a prototype and a teaching tool: it demonstrates how stronger prompting can lead to clearer interface direction.

I focused on the same process the experience teaches: starting with a broad idea, then refining the design by adding clearer context, visual direction, specific sections, and more intentional interface details.

How This Connects to the Stitch Workflow: Stitch Playground is built around the idea that better prompts create better starting points.

The experience encourages users to move beyond one-line requests like “make a landing page” and instead describe the product goal, audience, style, layout, content modules, and interaction patterns. This makes the design process feel less random and more collaborative.

I also wanted the project to reflect how Stitch can fit naturally into a real creative workflow: ideating, refining, comparing versions, and turning prompt structure into interface structure.

Stitch Features / Workflow Highlighted: This project highlights Stitch as an (amazing) interface builder that helps users move from idea to interactive product faster. It also emphasizes prompt-based iteration, structured design direction, and using Stitch as a collaborative design partner. I used new features presented on Stitch's X last week, such as motion and experimented with the Netify connection, Figma export and Google Studio import. I also added a restriction of 4 prompts per day to ensure my webpage does not get abused.

Feedback on Stitch: Stitch is incredibly POWERFUL, not just for developers but for designers too. You can easily get started with a simple prompt in Stitch to create something truly amazing.

Why I Built It: I wanted to make something helpful for the Stitch community. Thank you team. I am so happy to have found this product. Start Playing in your Stitch Playground >

Project Title: TimeMap — Historical World Explorer

Short description: TimeMap is an interactive historical world map explorer that lets you travel through time and space simultaneously. Select multiple cities and archaeological sites from different parts of the world and see what was happening at the exact same moment in history.

What I built: An interactive web app where you can:

Search historical cities and archaeological sites

Compare up to 4 locations simultaneously across 5,000 years of history

Navigate through 7 historical eras via an interactive timeline

Filter by world region

Listen to era-appropriate ambient music

Explore a vintage cartographic map with wave ocean texture

How I used Google Stitch: I started from a personal infographic I designed in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop about the Korean Peninsula. I extracted the visual DNA — warm cream palette, coral accents, serif typography — and brought it into Google Stitch to prototype the interface. Through multiple iterations in Stitch I designed the map layout, the side panel, the leader portrait, the timeline and the editorial aesthetic. Stitch was the bridge between my design vision and the final development in Claude Code.

Workflow: Adobe Illustrator + Photoshop → Google Stitch → Claude Code

Feedback on Stitch: Stitch is genuinely powerful for rapid UI prototyping. Iterating visually with prompts saved enormous time. The design consistency across iterations was impressive. Areas for improvement: handling complex SVG elements like world maps was challenging, and version history navigation could be more intuitive.

Very cool, the maps look awesome.
