Most developers think their job is to build features.
Forms. Dashboards. APIs.
Ship it. Move on.
A recent project changed that.
We’re building DCB Holistic for canine nutrition expert Dr. Conor Brady.
It looked like a typical SaaS: dashboard, AI tools, subscriptions. But the real problem wasn’t software — it was scaling expertise.
One expert can only help so many dog owners. So we built a system that turns knowledge into a product:
• tracks a dog’s health history
• analyses symptoms and diet
• generates AI health insights
Stack: React · Express · PostgreSQL
Toughest part? Designing the data model, diet, symptoms, gut health, vet reports. Once solid, AI connects the dots.
Software isn’t about shipping features. It’s about scaling knowledge.
How do you approach it: start with features, or the problem that needs to scale?

Good work
I am developing a new AI agent tool that is seed-backed. We are currently building a comprehensive design system, UI components, and test cases, including edge scenarios.
I am solely responsible for designing the entire application, including architecture flows.
Nice 🔥🙌
Hey Contra Community!
Here is first challenge submission 🙌
I wanted to explore how a single creative workflow could turn a concept into a complete animated design story.
The project is built around three animal archetypes - Lion, Camel, and Horse - representing three different superpowers translated into fashion.
Inside Kittl, I experimented with typography design, t-shirt mockups, and style variations such as vintage, pop-art, and 90’s typography, before placing the designs into scenes and animating them.
The idea was to show how concept → typography → mockup → motion can exist in one visual workflow.

Congrats on the first challenge submission! The idea of building a visual story around the animal archetypes is really cool.
