Posts like this make me feel envy because it's not available in >. People smarter than me seriously need to separate design with framework and make combining them more like changing clothes.

#82I basically want this but in pure css. Highlight aesthetically pleasing!

#83I really like the look of this. Kudos to the creator. It's legible, fast, and doesn't make my eyes bleed from the brightness. This is excellence in proper use of contrast. I'm tempted to use this on all my sites. Side note: I don't get any audio in Firefox. I had to load the page in Chromium to hear audio.
Works fine for me in Firefox on OSX.

#84The author of the project seems to have built his personal website with this framework, and it looks perfect! https://romelperez.com/projects Like everyone else said, it's really one of the very few frameworks I wanted to build something on top of as soon as I saw it. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like you can even throw it on some reveal.js slides? Unless he did the slides himself.

Pretty neat.

#85It might look fun for a couple of minutes, but it's extremely annoying for the real world use.
How so? On mobile swiping between pages felt very seamless and a well executed transition. That by itself is something most appy sites barely get right. Still checking it out, but at first glance it’s obvious this person gets the details right.
The zeep zoop sound with practically every element interaction, for starters.

#86Earlier quoted context omitted.
This actually shows something interesting: that there is a coherent visual language for interfaces within the sci-fi subgenre of graphic design that just kind of appeared by implicit consensus. Which I guess can be said for many visual design trends - many of us can guess both when and for what purpose a product was designed based on its graphic design.
Also that coherency is probably why many Star Trek reboots often look off
It definitely is for me. The LCARS interface is as much of a character of the story as the as the Enterprise herself (substitute with Voyager, Defiant, or São Paulo if you wish) and I’d go a step further of saying ship interfaces and systems inform us as much about the era of Star Trek one is watching as does the plot and narrative at any given moment to the discerning and attentive Trekkie :)

#87Love this stuff. I wonder what it's like for someone too young to remember the constraints that the design references. Like the cyberpunk fast scrolling effect is a reference to 300baud terminals being dog slow, and the idea that text could zip in that fast implied something fast and powerful. The image loading screens are complex and fast, like a kind of arpeggio of the individual steps sped up. As though to say, "I…
Beautifully written.
I just finished rewatching Halt and Catch Fire. If you haven't watched it, I recommend for the C64 hype and revisiting of the digital revolution.

Works for me in Firefox Android.

#89This is great if you're building a web page as marketing for some sci-fi game or movie.
Don't use this for a real application. Real as in used for making real money.

#90Glad to see this posted on Hacker News. I used this for our internal tool and the first time I showed it, almost the whole company were in awe. I made a kind of public version here if you're interested: https://scan-viewer.vercel.app/scans/1 Edit: Guess I should explain a bit more about this tool. Our main product is a handheld scanner that can take an individual’s body measurements while they are fully clothed. You…
I have to ask, but how does the scanner work - if i am clothed how does it reconstruct my underneath self?
Or is it actually penetrating the cloth?
BTW - great idea. It has to be the future of clothes shopping
