🥟 Dump your wins, grow your proof!
Growing up as an Asian woman, I was taught that humility is a virtue.
At every performance review, I couldn't remember my wins. Even when I did, I couldn't say them out loud.
And it's not just me. It's millions of people, especially women, especially in cultures that teach you not to put yourself forward.
So my sister and I built Dumpling 🥟
With us, your wins get remembered, refined, and ready when it counts!
⚒️ How we built it:
- Figma Weave: my sister's illustration studio — one consistent hand-drawn cat family, 20 characters, and UI components
- Figma Make: product logic + QA partner — I used it to test edge cases, catch usability gaps, and turn raw notes into business language. We found and fixed 10 issues this way earlier.
For everyone who taught their work should speak for itself, now it actually does!
Let me know which cat you got 🐈⬛
When I saw in mobile, It was not so good.
I improved mobile design in new project screen and main screen with keeping desktop design.
You sisters could check HERE, 🎉🎉
Hope to be a collaborator of your project.
Thanks!
Wow, Kittipong! thank you for actually taking the time to redesign the mobile screens and share this! 🙏 That's incredibly generous.
You're right that mobile needed work, we focused on desktop for the Makeathon timeline, so seeing your mobile take is really helpful. We'll...

Proud to share my submission for the #configMakeathon 🦋
Design has one job — make people feel something before they think something.
For the #ConfigMakeathon, I built a complete digital campaign experience for Butterfly Conservation's "Britain's Favourite Butterfly" — taking a public vote and transforming it into something people actually want to be part of.
The challenge wasn't technical. It was human. How do you make someone genuinely care about a species they've never noticed? How do you turn conservation data into something personal? How do you design an experience that moves people from passive viewers to active participants?
The answer was architecture — three distinct experiences working as one:
🗳️ Results Explorer — A fully filterable species discovery system built around personality vibes, wing colours, and rarity. Not a leaderboard. A world worth exploring.
🧬 Personality Quiz — A matching experience that gives every user a butterfly identity rooted in real behavioural traits. Flashy. Feisty. Adventurous. Rare. When someone sees themselves in a species, the relationship changes entirely.
🌿 Conservation Narrative — A story-first approach to ecological data that earns its urgency rather than demanding it. The stakes land harder when you already have a favourite.
This is the kind of work I find most meaningful — where design isn't decoration, it's the strategy itself.

Hi creatives! 👋
For #ConfigMakeathon, I created SLAMBOOK for Designers ✨
https://slambook.figma.site
It's inspired by the slambooks many of us had as kids, but reimagined for the internet.
Designers from all over the world can create their own page by adding photos, favorite music, creative advice, inspirations, and a few fun facts about themselves. It's a playful way to discover people behind the portfolios and build new connections within the design community.
The best part? It lives online and can always be in your pocket, just add it to your home screen like an app.
This concept could work for any community.
Imagine a special Config edition where attendees share their photos, inspirations, favorite talks, creative superpowers, or memorable moments from the event.
A little internet corner where creativity, personality, and community come together 💛
If it resonates, pass it on and start your own page 💛
If you really love it, I’d be sooo grateful for your support. Every goat, like, comment, share, means so much for me. Thank you!

I present Doodle Fonts, my entry for Config Makeathon.
Making a custom typeface can be very complex and time consuming. Nearly every designer who wants a weird little display font for one project ends up licensing something generic, begging a type designer for a favor, learning a new complex pipeline or quietly giving up. Custom type is gatekept — not by talent, but by tooling. The most personal element of a brand is the one most people aren't allowed to touch.
Doodle Fonts fixes that. It's a font foundry that fits inside a canvas. You draw each glyph — freehand pencil, shapes, a dot grid, whatever feels right — across a full 96-character set covering upper, lower, numbers and punctuation. The whole alphabet renders live as you go, every font is saved to a library with an "X / 96 drawn" progress count, and when you're done you export a real, working, installable OTF font file.
It's built with Figma Make so it runs where designers already live, with Supabase handling auth and storage so your fonts follow you across sessions.
Display and brand type doesn't need PhD-level kerning — it needs personality. Doodle Fonts collapses "learn pro software + lose a weekend" into "doodle for twenty minutes," turning type design from a specialist skill into something anyone on a team can do.
Links to Doodle Fonts:
Everyone keeps telling designers to "just make a custom font." Now they actually can.
Can't wait to see how many fonts get created!
Wow I love this! I've always wanted to moonlight as a type designer...@Carlos Fernandez what's your fav typeface?
