Mattan Ingram
Product designer pushing code, raised on the 1984 Mac, Top Gun, and Sesame Street. Making glowing rectangles do cool stuff with AI, design systems, and CSS.
Latest
My latest project to learn new AI design patterns and working with native AI models and frameworks.
Beliefs
Join Forces
Design and development don't need to be awkward partners. I'll teach designers HTML and CSS, and developers taste and typography.
Be the User
Empathy alone is not enough to improve user experience. I use the product I'm building, so my own enjoyment or frustration drives the design forward.
Why not Both?
Functionality and aesthetics are not enemies. Let the pixels point the user the right way, and let the features save them enough time to enjoy it.
AI is a Wrench
It's a powerful tool that can open up one problem while grinding the gears of another. Knowing when and where to apply it is as powerful as the AI itself.
Read the Manual
Do a little reading first. Trial by fire is great, but even AI can miss useful details in implementation.
Best Practices
It's worth the time to look up how other people have done something and learn from their successes and mistakes.
