I love playing LoFi while I work. I also love coffee shop ambiance. So I built a dual YouTube player with Lovable, so I can have both and dial in the volume ratio to get the perfect mix. I even added a lil focus timer with pomodoro, ultradian, and 52/17 cycle presets (plus custom intervals). No login, no subscription, and everything stays in the browser, so no cloud data capture. Just a helpful lil app I personally wanted to use while I work, and I plan to make it available for free pretty soon so everyone can enjoy it (just need to bug test, refine a little, grab a domain, and deploy properly). What is everyone else building with Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, etc?

Cover image for Imagine if your morning coffee did more than wake you up. ✨ ...

Imagine if your morning coffee did more than wake you up. ✨ We created a simple concept: Sticker Storytelling on Cups, inspired by the baristas at Element Cafe on 17th Ave in Calgary. It evolves the classic Starbucks practice of leaving messages or creatively misspelling names on cups by bringing in the language of social media - :emojis and stickers. Formula: a barista’s expression sticker + a short phrase + some add-ins = a unique message for each guest. Why it works: - Organic reach: fun combos spark UGC. - Emotional connection: personalized notes build loyalty. - Brand recall: a small detail that stands out. Room to grow: - Themed packs for holidays, movies, and local events. - Team packs celebrating long-term baristas. What do you think about turning a disposable cup into a tiny marketing asset?

Jotson is an energy management app ⚡️ that I've been pretty excited to help build. I led the creation of their first design system and introduced a new illustration system. I also contributed to designing the product features, one of it in the video below. The intro animated video is one I'm most proud of. We didn't really have a motion design capacity in-house but I had some experience in my prior work. Using the design system, I storyboarded, animated, and edited the final video. It's not the most polished and the sound could definitely better but for the scope and the budget it performed pretty well! 😊 See the case study overview here (https://contra.com/p/UWZ2AMYe-design-and-illustration-system-for-reducing-tech-and-design-debt?referralExperimentNid=DEFAULT_REFERRAL_PROGRAM&referrerUsername=traceorozco)

Cover image for What if your everyday texts

What if your everyday texts were actually a love story? I built Between Us (https://love-between-us.replit.app/), where you upload your WhatsApp chat export and it transforms your raw message history into a beautiful, shareable one-pager celebrating your relationship. The result is a unique URL you can send to your person. A love letter written by your own conversations. Huge shoutout to Wispr Flow - It just works out of the box, super intuitive, strips out all the ums and ahs, and reformats everything cleanly. It lets you think out loud without friction. This is staying in my daily workflow well beyond this hackathon. The stack: Replit, Figma, OpenAI's API and Gemini for image gen.

Every year we buy gifts we know are bad. We smile. They lie. The cycle continues. I built The Anti-Gift Guide (https://anti-gift-guide.replit.app/) to end this. You answer a few uncomfortable questions about the person you’re shopping for, get assigned a toxic persona, and receive a list of things you absolutely should not buy them...if you want to remain friends. Built with: - @Replit for the app - @Suno for mildly annoying festive audio - @Tolstoy for the product image template Use at your own risk 👉 https://anti-gift-guide.replit.app/ (Speakers on for extra magic) Side note: Replit handled the entire build without complaint, which is more than I can say for most tools. And Suno’s v5 model is alarmingly good for the speed it produces results.

Most AI tools are sycophants. They tell you everything looks great, even when it doesn't. So I built Red Flag Resume - a tool that gives you the brutally honest feedback recruiters won't. No sugarcoating. Just the red flags and real fixes. First time using YouWare and as a UX designer, I was impressed. The designs came out polished and thoughtful, not the usual AI output. Try it out here 👉 https://ds8gc1537n.youware.app Social post on X link here (https://x.com/michellesjames/status/2003351667891458200) and proof of X account follow here (https://i.imgur.com/jSiGLrG.png).

I have ADHD and struggle to cook without getting overwhelmed… so I created Simmer. Simmer turns chaotic online recipes into calm, step-by-step instructions you can actually follow. One clear action at a time - no rushing, no stress. This was also my first time using Anything, and wow. It handled multiple tasks in one go, tracked its own to-do list, let me revert versions instantly, and even rendered a real app from my first prompt. And building anywhere, anytime is a game changer (bonus photo attached of me starting the build on my phone while cooking) Try it here: https://www.createanything.com/mobile-preview/b1d0ce41-5d7b-4881-a936-5bdd4edc980f Let me know what you think! 😊 Build view (for judges): https://www.createanything.com/build/b1d0ce41-5d7b-4881-a936-5bdd4edc980f?view=2e0b2535-f3be-4d8f-b28c-9dad833b5824

Cover image for I built an animation-driven website

I built an animation-driven website focused on immersive scrolling, smooth transitions, and expressive micro-interactions. The goal was to create a highly engaging experience that feels fluid and intentional rather than decorative. Motion was used to guide attention, explain content hierarchy, and reinforce brand personality. Solution I designed animations to be purpose-driven, lightweight, and responsive-safe. Scroll animations were tied to layout logic rather than fixed values, ensuring consistency across devices. Motion was introduced progressively, with careful easing and timing to maintain clarity and performance while still delivering a premium, cinematic feel.

Cover image for Right now, I’m working on

Right now, I’m working on an avatar card animation where I’m experimenting with a more dramatic, electronic feel. I’m focusing on motion timing, hover and reveal effects, and layering animations so the cards feel alive and interactive. I’m tweaking easing, glow effects, and transitions to make the movement feel sharp and energetic, not flat or generic. I’m also testing performance and responsiveness so the animation stays smooth across different screen sizes.
