AI is destroying the web
AI tools are fundamentally changing web development in concerning ways. While they help senior developers code faster, they're causing significant problems: Tailwind CSS saw 75% staff cuts despite 28 million weekly downloads because AI tools bypass their documentation site. LLMs predominantly generate React/TypeScript/Tailwind code, reducing ecosystem diversity and creativity. Beginners learning primarily through AI may adopt poor coding practices that slip into production. The sustainability of open-source projects is threatened as large companies benefit without supporting maintainers, potentially leading to abandoned frameworks that AI models depend on.
100% agree. the Tailwind layoffs (75% of engineering team gone despite ~75M monthly downloads) is the canary in the coal mine. AI speeds up seniors but: homogenizes stacks (everything React/TS/Tailwind) teaches juniors bad patterns at scale extracts massive value from OSS...

It's 2031. No one works anymore. The world is an utopia. You can prompt AI to create anything you need.
I will still have not even opened an Ai app and rigorously do all the work with my hands, because I do not give a single fuck and I enjoy the process.
Oh king of the old ways, lead the revolution against AI 😂
nice drawing tho
Grab the Bears - A Camera-Based Gesture Interaction
A few years ago, gesture interaction required a full engineering team and months of development.
For the Figma Makeathon, I built a working camera-controlled gesture game on my own - entirely in Figma Make.
Grab the Bears reimagines tap and swipe as physical gestures. Players use their right hand to grab floating bears in real time.
• Camera-driven embodied interaction
• Real-time gesture detection
• Animated UI + sound micro-interactions
• Dynamic result generation with shareable export?
Really impressive — camera-based interaction inside Figma Make is a leap. Curious how you handled gesture recognition latency and feedback loops? The micro-response timing probably makes or breaks the experience
Modern SaaS landing page design for an AI reel generator platform that helps creators produce viral short-form content faster. The interface focuses on clear visual hierarchy, high engagement UI elements, and a clean product marketing layout.
The hero section highlights the core value proposition — creating viral reels quickly using AI automation. The layout combines strong typography, and conversion-focused call-to-action buttons to guide users through the product experience.
• Engagement indicators and social proof
• Modern product marketing UI structure
• Creator-focused AI tool interface
• Scalable component-based design system
This concept explores how AI tools for content creation can be presented through a modern SaaS marketing interface that is both visually appealing and optimized for product conversion.
