In the past, I worked on @getonbeam, a browser with a note taking angle. Pressing ⌥ anytime on the web to capture parts of the page felt magical. Beam is gone, sadly. So here is the original product demo we made for posterity. An interactive mini-beam <3 hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

A live captions app is hard to film. Captions over a video, in a video, misses the point: it's an overlay over whatever you're doing. Here's a live demo instead, it switches apps mid-sentence, captions running. $5 this week, then $9. Once. Local. subtitles-live.com

hey @npmjs I know you are probably busy with all the supply chain attacks recently... But could you fix your dark mode code highlighting color-scheme please?

Fixed it locally

Should be fixed, does it fetch info at build time?

I just combined NumberFlow with a Family wallet-style input and open-sourced it. Animated. Accessible. Free. Zero excuses not to use it. → react-number-flow-input 👇

Just released react-split-flap-display on npm / github so everyone can have fun integrating split-flap displays on the web. This ones fully creates the spool, it's as close to the real thing as can be. Install today, and drop a star on github. github.com/daformat/react-sp…

I’m always fascinated when I see tvOS tilting card with parallax, so I rebuilt them with React and Css So satisfying, although creating the layered images was a bit of a chore

Design engineering exercise: A slider with a twist. Not my idea, help me find who I stole it from! Composable, headless, and with support for multi-range and (optionally magnetic) markers

CSS + JS split flap display, how satisfying is it to rotate the display? This implem actually fully create the spool, as opposed to usual implementations which only render and animate prev / current / next flaps

I got nostalgic and rebuilt a split-flap display component with React and css that I added to design engineering gallery. Unlike most implementations, this one fully creates the drum and rotate all the flaps, instead of just the prev / current / next one.

Design engineering: a Number Flow (by @MBarvian ) / @family inspired input component. Was frustrated that Number Flow doesn't really give you an input mode. Made with contentEditable (and a lot of sweat), controlled / uncontrolled Play with it live hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

I can't remember where I stole this from, but I think it's still pretty much on point. Getting truer every day

Slowed down version, @jh3yy is this what you were talking about yesterday? Gnarly calculations but the card never overlaps now and the z-index swapping is invisible

You can send to back the swiped cards: not straightforward to compute the distance so that the card doesn't overlap the rest of the stack when swapping the z-index to send the card backwards. Many implem don't bother Not proud of the code, but works great hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

Design engineering: in my "cards" phase rn, and was wondering what it would take to make a swipeable cards carousel (cc @Tinder) on the web. @SkiperUi has one, but I wanted to be able to really flick the cards away. @Gur__vi will like it Play live: hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

Here's the general idea in css. You'll need to use javascript to update --remaining-backwards and --remaining-forwards variables on scroll

Instead of animating the opacity of the mask when reaching the edges, I prefer to update the length of the mask based on the remaining scroll distance. I find the effect more natural, smoother and overall more pleasing See it live: hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

Design engineering: rolling stacking cards The basic stacking effect is easy to do, but the rolling version is a bit trickier. Scroll-driven animations and a bit of javascript to achieve the effect. Maybe @jh3yy will be able to make a full css implem? hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

Design engineering: I'm always frustrated when a carousel component doesn't allow you to drag to scroll, so I built one that fits my needs: snapping, drag to scroll, pagination, momentum, overscroll and rubber-banding. And also, a mask that progressively appears/disappears based on the distance to the edges instead of just blinking in/out abruptly. Play with it: hello-mat.com/design-enginee…

Custom momentum, overscroll and rubber banding on desktop. I didn't like that this only ever happens on touch devices so I implemented them. Also: snapping, pagination and a mask that subtly appears / disappears as you approach the edges instead of blinking in / out
