I built a beautiful flight tracker for your focus. It's called Paper Trails π© (and yes, it has multiplayer)
Made in Figma Make + Supabase.

Every focus session is a flight. Pick your session details and take off. Your paper plane drifts across a watercolour world map, alongside everyone else focusing right now.
Most focus timers feel like a chore, and when the time's up, it's like nothing's changed. I wanted something different: something calm, a little collaborative, where the work you put in leaves a mark.
So when you land, you give yourself a round of applause, and your session stays on the map as a paper trail, for you and everyone else to see. Focus that adds up.
It started as sketches (I've got the paper trails to prove it), became a rough first version, and Make let me refine fast until it felt right.
Made for the #ConfigMakeathon
Nice!

I built Echo Cord for my mother.
After being diagnosed with early-onset dementia, everyday routines became harder to navigate. Medications. Appointments. Even simple daily tasks.
But one thing never changed.
She still wanted to maintain her independence.
Echo Cord is a caregiving companion designed to help families communicate routines, medications, appointments, and daily tasks through simple visual Echoes. Each Echo is delivered as a single focused task, reducing complexity while providing reassurance for both loved ones and caregivers.
Built for the Config Makeathon, Echo Cord was designed and prototyped in Figma using Figma Make and Figma Design Agent. The workflow focused on exploring caregiver and patient experiences, refining accessibility-first interactions, and designing for clarity, simplicity, and confidence.
While inspired by dementia care, Echo Cord was designed with broader applications in mind, including memory support, cognitive recovery, traumatic brain injury recovery, and other caregiving scenarios where clear communication matters.
Back Story:
Echo Cord is deeply personal to me and, at times, difficult.
Throughout the design process, I found myself thinking about my mother constantly. Every screen, interaction, and word was shaped by a simple question:
"Would this make things easier for Mom?"
What began as a design challenge quickly became something much more meaningful. This project is my way of turning a deeply personal experience into something that might help other families facing similar challenges.

Love the visual direction here. The attention to detail really stands out.
Legacy is a space where families preserve what actually matteredπ

Such a creative use of Figma's ecosystem. Really inspiring workflow and execution.
My grandmother has stories I've never asked her to tell.
So I'm building Dhaaga (ΰ€§ΰ€Ύΰ€ΰ€Ύ : "thread") for the Figma Config Makeathon.
It's simple: I ask her one question. She talks. The app listens in Hindi, keeps her words exactly as she said them, and translates them for me. The story becomes a little glowing star. Add more stars and they form a constellation of everyone in our family who has ever spoken.
The AI also notices which years of her life have no stars yet β and gently suggests what to ask next.
No streaks. No feed. Just her voice, kept. Link: https://www.figma.com/make/kM6cJtVxUCSiwg2QDHnw5W/Dhaaga-mobile-web-app?t=TH6HFaH1lDPoWU0B-1 Community: https://www.figma.com/community/file/1648024958051528400/dhaaga
