How do you move from “nice UI” to a usable experience? You prototype. It’s where structure, interaction, and clarity get tested, so the final design is based on feedback, not guesses.

A client gave this idea the green light before I even started building it.

Been using AI a lot lately to prototype ideas early, show the direction, and make sure we’re aligned before jumping into the actual build.

Such a good time saver.

An experiment exploring how to visually communicate design impact through a draggable before/after slider. Built to test the interaction and motion feel of scrubbing between two states of a design, it uses a small format to show transformation at a glance 😊

The compact format is doing a lot of work—the draggable reveal makes the improvement immediately legible, while the consistent card rhythm keeps the comparison easy to scan.
