I'm building my dream video editor with Claude AI
11k lines of code, 685 commits, 3 full weeks. Cursor, Tailwind, React, Firebase. Web-based, cloud saves, versions, can edit on mobile. This video was recorded using the tool.
Never in a million years I thought I was capable but
We just moved to Singapore. It’s a dream to live here.
⁃ 26-31º all year
⁃ Super safe & clean
⁃ Great education & services
⁃ Started a company w/ Sleek
⁃ Sponsored my own visa
Rent is expensive (5k), but everything else is affordable, esp taxi and food.
Canada has been my
I made a design tool. 95% of it was coded by Claude AI.
You can design, animate SVG patterns and export to vectors, png, video or GIF. Use presets, save designs and share urls. Works great on mobile and web.
10k lines of code. The future is insanely fun.
Last year, I didn’t know if we’d make it. I was wrong.
- Hired 8 early designers and devs
- 50% designers
- 14 people
- 100% self-funded
We made 1M CAD in revenue. We don’t fight about code or design, we only execute and learn. We focus on making our customers happy.
My 8yo son built a Three.js site with zero coding experience
He used Claude AI and let Cursor apply all the code for him. He actually made several projects including 2 platformer games, a drawing app, an animation app and an AI chat app. ~2 hours spent on each. I only helped him
1-month update after moving to Singapore
⁃ Lots of brief rain showers. Not as hot as anticipated.
⁃ Balcony is a second living room. No need for AC during the day as fans are enough.
⁃ Children enrolled at an international school for 14k/year
⁃ Housekeeping for 75/week

My SwiftUI course is here! I built this app from scratch so I can teach every single step, from building an adaptive UI, to animating it and adding gestures
This is how easy it is to implement Lottie animations. Designers can treat these as assets so that engineers don’t have to manually code these animations.
The best way to teach someone is to give them the necessary tools, a real project and a deadline. Without a real project, the lessons won’t stick, and without a deadline, they won’t feel the urgency to learn.
There’s so much you can do with SwiftUI. You can animate gradients, blending modes, call multiple screens and pair with gestures. This is next level prototyping. 👌
You can make your Figma designs functional with Claude AI
Select component, go to Dev Mode and use Figma to Code plugin to turn to React/Tailwind. Copy the code and paste to Claude AI.
Prompt "Create this component and center it". Then, "Make this functional", "Add rounded
I’m thinking of doing a full video course about UI design: layout, colors, hierarchy, proportions, composition, starting mobile/web designs from scratch, etc. A deep dive into my own process of design and code.
Would there be any interest?
My free
@Webflow
course is here! I’m teaching how to build a full site using CSS techniques, advanced interactions, Lottie, CMS, forms and payments. All without writing code.
After 6 months in the making, I'm releasing Angle 2 with over 500 devices and mockups in a giant Sketch Library. On top of that, we're making the Angle Plugin free!
At this point, I'm considering SwiftUI to be a design tool. I've been trying almost every effect so I can explain what each does and how to use them effectively for design.
I’m working on a UI design system for
@figma
and
@framer
- 200+ components with properties like light/dark, size, state and icons
- Color/spacing variables, so easy to change entire system
- Fully themed sections and templates
- Ready to publish to Framer
Anyone interested?
This is my new course on building your dream apps with Claude AI
I’m detailing all my tips and techniques that went into making my video editor and svg pattern builder. Everything from building with Cursor, ideation, generating UI, prompting to full stack
I’m incredibly excited to release my first React course for designers. It will teach you how to build components, animations and even data/payments. You can learn by coding a site from scratch.
I put together a massive list of the best tools and resources for designers and developers. Will also revive our weekly newsletter which has close to 25,000 people!
