If you ask Claude to generate a web page for you, there is a high chance you will get a very generic output. The page serves a functional purpose, but it's not very appealing. You can see that this design clearly serves the functional purpose, but doesn't look very appealing.

Here's the sad truth about sports score apps: Most of them aren't all that interested in actually telling you the score. After all, where's the money in providing straightforward information like that? The modern sports score app has to do more. It must bombard you with banner ads and betting odds, implore you to create an account and opt into notifications, sell you some tickets, and show some videos to keep engagement up. The scores themselves are an afterthought.

Instructions I created. Instructions I am continuing to hone - instructions that required me to study my own old essays, identifying what I do when I write. The sentence rhythms. The way I move between timescales. The zooming in and out from concept to detail. The instructions tell Claude how I would like ideas composed. I pull together concepts and experiences from my lived expertise to formulate a point of view - in this case, on this new AI technology.

We risk allowing the loudest voices, often the safest, the most predictable, to drown out individuality, identity, and truth. To me, this line... This line echoes a growing tension I feel in content design.

Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 image model) is particularly strong for UI design because of its 99% text accuracy, its ability to understand spatial layout, and its support for high-resolution 4K output. In this article, I want to share my 5 favorite cases of using this model for UI design tasks. ( Quick note: I won't dive into a critique of the output generated by AI in this article, letting you decide whether you like it or not)

Minimal doesn't always mean usable. This comparison shows how Linear-style UI keeps contrast, affordances, and structure intact, unlike brutalism's extremes or neumorphism's low-clarity depth effects. Daniel Schwarz Feb 5, 2026 2 min read Linear-style UIs look simple, but the theming system has to do real work. Here's how to meet WCAG 2.2 contrast requirements across light, dark, and high-contrast modes whether you're using a UI library

Linear-style UIs look simple, but the theming system has to do real work. Here's how to meet WCAG 2.2 contrast requirements across light, dark, and high-contrast modes whether you're using a UI library or rolling your own tokens.
