The point isn't showing what they look like, it's that the result is randomized. Screenshots aren't, so that kind of defeats the purpose. The article starts with instructions on ho…

The wallet app UI is the peak of Apple's 'single 20y/o in sf' design. Anyone that has multiple card from the same bank (because, say, you have a personal account and a shared accou…

Hey, Polypane founder here hoping to get feedback and iterate ;) Needing to fill in the paperwork for a saas is a PITA. Is there anything I could add to the site or elsewhere that …

A short, compressed, small video that's edge-cached beats always out a 4K stream, so it even works as a tactic to keep you in that overview longer.

Those are customers. Just like for example on netlify.com. I had a title stating that for the longest time, then I noticed nearly all other landing pages simply have it without tit…

Haha, email me and we’ll see

Polypane is a chromium-based browser that you install on your own device and use while building applications that lets you develop at different (emulated) devices and screensizes/v…

Can't seem to replicate that here (m4 macbook), but I'll keep it open for a bit and see what happens. Thanks for letting me know!

This feels like a lay-up, but here you go :) https://polypane.app/docs/emulation/#emulation-or-simulation Polypane doesn't simulate the specific rendering engine of other browsers,…
