Experiments in the open. Built to learn.

AI experiments built in the open. No clients, no stakeholders, just new tools and things I wanted to make.

The reprint: a dot matrix postcard that reads hello stranger

Figma Make · Supabase · Claude Code

The reprint

A dot matrix print shop-like generator for the AI era. Built to prove that nostalgia + new technology can be friends. Started with a lightweight design system in Figma, shaped the foundations in Claude Code, then brought it together in Figma Make. The hard part was the print engine itself: generating multiple downloadable formats and saving every print to the wall, a live Supabase integration.

The pumpkin spice index share card: twelve tells on a radial diagram, spice level 3, a splash

Figma Make · Supabase · Claude

The pumpkin spice index

A spice level for AI work. Paste in some copy or a screenshot and it tells you how generic it is, 1 to 10, and what gave it away. Same recipe as the others: Figma Make up front, a Supabase function calling Claude for the scoring. The fun part was the twelve tells. Once you know them you can't unsee them, which is sort of the point. It scored its own site first. Got a 1.

Deadstack: an archive of AI obituaries, with causes of death to filter by

Figma Make · Payload · Claude Code

Deadstack

A newspaper death notices page for AI products that launched, flopped and died. Because every failed launch deserves a proper send-off. Same starting process, with Payload as the CMS behind Figma Make, and it was surprisingly fun and easy to set up. Obituaries, causes of death and halftone photos all live in the admin, and every flower, message and anonymous obituary lands as a draft until I approve it.

Snifflr app screens: swipe, sniff, match

Figma Make · Claude Code

Snifflr

A pet social app built like a dating app. Because your dog deserves a situationship too. Same starting process: design system in Figma, foundations in Claude Code, brought together in Figma Make with plenty of back and forth in the Figma Canvas. Most of the time here went into fine-tuning the design and setting up a working demo account space.
