✦ What I make · 03

UI/UX and product design, from research to release

Product design is the work of turning an idea into something people use every day. These are the products I have designed and built myself, end to end: an app on four Apple platforms, the free tools on this site, and the systems behind them.

UX research · Interface design · iOS and watchOS · Prototyping · Front-end development

✦ How I work

Process and tools

Start with the content

For Said Daily I wrote the library before I designed a screen. It holds 32,259 thoughts, each with a short essay and a reflection question, so the interface was shaped by real content from day one. The story is in why I built Said Daily.

Design and build in one loop

I design in Figma, build in code and test on the real device. Said Daily runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch from a single codebase, and it is free on the App Store with no ads and no tracking.

Ship small tools that solve one problem

The same approach runs the free tools on this site. The OG Image Checker shows how a link will look when it is shared, the ROAS Calculator works out return on ad spend, and Free Resources lists more than 1,900 link-checked tools.

Tools: Figma · Swift · SwiftUI · CloudKit · Cloudflare Workers · Framer
