Wow.... This design got my upgoat..... Keep up the great work
Building a free productivity tool in SwiftUI and open-sourcing it is a good move. The concept is simple but that's usually what actually gets used day to day.

Memory Bank is a private family app designed to capture the small moments that usually get lost.
We take thousands of photos every year, but the little things often disappear: a note before a test, a flower picked on the way home from school, a funny photo of the family cat, or a simple “good luck” message from a parent.
Memory Bank gives families a shared space where they can add photos, notes, and emojis throughout the day. These contributions form a collaborative daily memory that lives on the home screen as a widget.
At midnight, the day’s memory is automatically captured as a Polaroid and saved to a family archive. Over time, families build a collection of memories together, one day at a time.
For this project, I wanted to experiment with a different design workflow.
Instead of starting in Figma, I used Codex and the Build-iOS-App workflow to generate a working Swift prototype first. My goal was to validate the interaction and product flow before investing time in visual design.
Once the concept felt promising, I used Figma MCP to bring the app screens into Figma, where I explored different visual directions, refined the user experience, and iterated on the overall concept.
I then used Figma Make to prototype key interactions and validate the experience before bringing those improvements back into the app.
Finally, I created the launch trailer and supporting assets using Hyperframes, Codex, and Figma MCP, allowing me to iterate on both the visual design and the story as the concept evolved.
The result was a workflow that felt much more fluid than the traditional path of Idea → Design → Prototype → Build.
Instead, the project evolved through a continuous loop of Idea → Prototype → Figma → Prototype → Launch.
Memory Bank started as a Makeathon experiment, but quickly became something I genuinely want to build for my own family.

Imagine a focus tracker that doesn't panic when you take your time. ⏳
Meet Taskr, my entry for the #ConfigMakeathon!
Most productivity apps add unnecessary pressure with countdown clocks that trigger instant "timer anxiety." For my first #ConfigMakeathon, I wanted to design a simple tool that let's you track your tasks without feeling the pressure of the classic Pomodoro timer.
I started the process in Figma Design, and then used Figma Make to bring the whole prototype to life.
Instead of counting down (hello, timer anxiety), Taskr quietly counts up. It stays completely out of your way. It even has a little radio deck so you can listen to focus stations while you manage your tasks. 🎧
Key Features:
- Stress-free tracking: A clean, intuitive timer that keeps you in the zone.
- Customizable Workflow: Easily rename tasks, add notes, and manage your progress.
- Built-in Radio Deck: Toggle between four curated stations to set your perfect focus vibe.

"Doesn't panic when you take your time" is a great product positioning line. Most focus tools punish you for being human.
