First time playing with Blender geometry nodes last night 🤓

Benjamin Dauton • Software Product Designer Freelance designer with 10+ years of experience crafting intuitive UIs and high-end visuals.

Gave my portfolio a little refresh over the last few weeks:
• Added recent projects
• Polished personal brand
• Auto-switching light/dark mode based on system preferences

More soon 🤓

I kept the UI basic since the goal is to use these heatmaps externally rather than within the tool itself.

Still blown away by what Claude can do 🤯

Finally took some time today to try Claude Code (yes I know, I'm late 😅).

Spending way too much time tinkering with the debug panel 🤓🎚️

It would be great if we could set custom names for frames and props in @figma.com. 99% of the time, I rename my frames to "container" instead of "Frame 192840" and my first component's property to "State" instead of "Property 1"

Yes, I try to rename all my layers to prevent issues with smart anims.

First time doing fretwork tonight!

Well done 👏👏👏

Just a few seconds more and I could’ve added the slide guitar 😅

Can't wait to see if the new Liquid Glass will also replicate fingerprints on the buttons 😅

On a serious note, I'm sure they will fix some a11y issues for the release this fall.
